I have a holux slim236 that has worked with everything I've used it with. It lives under my tyruck seat. 8100, HTC Wizard, Laptop. Works with all of it flawlessly. Got it from buygpsnow.com for cheap. (Not affilitated with buygpsnow)
Pair with TeleNav and it's Outstanding for driving directions!
I even used mine on the airplane today with BBMaps. While in network coverage I open BBMaps, download all the map area I want by panning around and zooming to the right size and then take off leaving the puck paired to the phone. The BT-359 kept up with the 450 mph for the entire route with no data service!
Then get where I'm going put in the address of the restaurant for lunch and makes a great day!
The pic doesn't do it justice....it's a sleek little unit.
People ask me all the time about it at work (are they turned on by my gadget?? ). They can't believe that it is a GPS device. To test it's sensitivity I have even put it in my glove box, no interruption!
Funny you should mention that....I learned that yesterday too...We got to Yakima and borrowed a car from the FBO to go get some lunch. It was a POS. I set my BT-359 on the dash to get directions to the restaurant. could've found it without but since it was brand new....We started driving and the first thing my buddy did was turn a little hard and the thing slid somewhere out of sight! OMG!! Lost down into a broken defogger grill was the first thing that came to mind! Fortunatly, that's not where it went ~Whew! It slid into into the glove box. But the glove box was locked and I couldn't get it out until we stopped and unlocked it. The thing kept up with giving the directions until we got where we were going.
Dude! That's my puck!! Works awesome with my 8703e!! Owe it to the excellent review by Stins-Double-D-og!
I saw this on RIM's website, but said it's for the 8800. So it will work with the 8703e from Verizon? Is it magnetic, so it will stick to the top of your car? If so I could order this and give my TomTom One to my BF.

Nope it works for the BB 8703e also. Check out Stinsonddogs excellent GPS review here:
It isn't magnetic so deff wouldn't be able to put it on the top of a vehicle. The reception (from my experience) has been excellent. I have put it in my glove box for a trip and the pairing was not interupted and Telenav kept right up with it. Some get a little anti-slip pad and put it on it.
Gps
