Delorme 32 channel GPS

Well, it is CES time of year again and new electronic adventure gear is hitting the shelves for another year.  It seems like nothing happens the rest of the year in the handheld GPS market, but when CES rolls around, the wires a buzzing.

This year Delorme has launched an update to their line of GPS products.  One of the areas they have been pushing the old guard is in the area of being able to load aerial photos from your PC to overlay with your GPS maps — a very nice feature.  This year, the big news is that the units sports support for a lock onto 32 satellites.  This is supposed to give you an almost instantaneous fix on satellites when you turn the unit on.

I will have to see it to belive it, but if GPS makers can solve the problem of getting a lock onto satellites without standing around and waiting, they will deserve a chunk of my hard-earned money.
