[OSM-dev] GPS Hardware Recomendation

[Julison]

I'm using Holux H-1000 Bluetooth connected to my HTC Windows Mobile PDA. It
works great and it's easy to set it up. After you configure once, you don't
need to configure anymore unless you reset your PDA.
As software, I'm using Turbo GPS, wich is great... and free!
