Spectec SDG-812 is a Bluetooth GPS receiver with a standard microSD memory slot.
Spectec SDG-812 is the world’s first GPS receiver to combine a microSD memory card slot into a tiny Bluetooth GPS receiver. It is also the smallest SD Bluetooth GPS receiver in the market.
Spectec SDG-812 combines both a Bluetooth GPS receiver and a memory card into the same unit while keeping the flexibility of allowing end user to insert a microSD memory card of their choice. This flash memory is useful storage for navigation software map data or any other digital data like MP3 music, images and documents files.
The basic concept of Spectec SDG-812 is that the Bluetooth GPS receiver is powered by the SD Slot of the host device (like PDA, PPC Phone, UMPC, TabletPC, laptop, etc.). With the built-in microSD slot, user could still access their data without worrying that the SD slot is being occupied.
Spectec SDG-812 is equipped with the most recent 20-channel ultra sensitive SiRF StarIII GPS Chipset and lower power comsumption.
Spectec SDG-812 is compatible with any NMEA GPS software in the market such as OCN6, TomTom, iGuidance, Wayfinder, etc.
With the compact and lightweight design, the Spectec SDG-812 provides real mobility and convenience for a wide range of use such as in a car, in the field, on a boat or even in an airplane.
Unlike competing products in the market, Spectec SDG-812’s cylindrical antenna could receive GPS signal from all directions and angles. So, user does not have to position the GPS antenna in any specific angle in order to achieve optimum GPS reception.
