<p><strong>Price:</strong> $31.50</p>
<p>- The ND-100 is a compact and portable device, which allows you to carry a GPS receiver for use on your laptop whenever you travel<br />
- The ND-100 requires no battery or cables, only your favorite NMEA compliant navigation software is all that’s needed to turn a laptop into a powerful navigation system<br />
- Bring GPS to your netbook and mini Laptop with this USB GPS Dongle, Plug and Drive!<br />
- By using your laptop its perfect if you want to use sat nav in a caravan, truck or even the car. Your netbook will have a larger screen than most sat nav making your drive a lot safer and easier to use<br />
- Works with Windows, Mac and Linux O/S notebooks/laptops/netbooks/UMPCs. Also works with netbooks like the Asus Eee PC, Asus and Medion netbooks plus more!<br />
- USB GPS Dongle receivers provide standard data for mapping software to use and convert to coordinates. Data from the ND-100 will work well with most software on the market today<br />
- The ND-100 is WAAS/EGNOS capable. With your sat nav software this will give you accurate door to door navigation.<br />
- The GPS requires an open, clear view of the sky. Buildings, covered parking areas, tunnels and dense foliage can cause the GPS receiver to be unable to get a location fix. If you are parked in a covered parking lot or near a tall building, it is recommended that you drive away until you have a clear view of the sky before using the ND-100. You may need to give the GPS a few minutes to find or get a fix at its location.<br />
- The Satellite Navigation software can be used on a Linux system if you uses a Windows API for Linux, see www.winehq.org. You may have to compile a kernel to get this working with Linux which is only advised for advance users.</p>

<p><strong>Reviews</strong></p>
<p><em>Pros:</em> Very compact, works just fine even indoor (close to a window). I&#8217;m using it plugged in to my asus eeepc as a car board GPS with google maps as software.</p>
<p><em>Cons:</em> I need to use the usb cable that comes along with the dongle to get better reception</p>
