Opinions on USB GPS stick from Microsoft Streets and Trips 2009, 2010.

I see the newer Microsoft Streets and Trips comes with a different GPS sensor.
Any specs/opinions on it?

Here's my experience with three USB receivers, including both MS receivers.

Thanks Ken. Good info!
Looks like I'm better off to stick with the Pharos I already have.

In areas where there is good reception, both receivers will work just fine. In "difficult" areas you will most likely notice the difference. The above is a test I did some time ago, comparing the new USB GPS stick and the older Pharos unit. I wish I had a BU-353 with me that day. I bet BU-353 would have won the test. ;-)
