 Bluetooth stopped working after a year July 3, 2008
I've had this gps receiver for over two years. It worked well for about a year. Now the bluetooth transmitter in it doesn't work, and I cannot connect or pair any of my devices with it.
The bluetooth blue LED doesn't light up, or stays continuously on, instead of flashing intermittently as it's supposed to. If I restart the unit several times, I can sometimes get it to work.
Additionaly, the battery is sensitive to heat. I left it on the dash for a couple of days once, and the battery swelled up, and I could not close the battery lid since.
I'm definitely not buying this unit again.
 works perfectly April 8, 2008
It works great and I found it having a better signal reception than the TOMTOM original antenna I have.
The only shortcome is that the antenna doesn't turn itself off automotically when it doesn't receive any blutooth signal after a certain period of time. I mean if you forget to turn the antenna off when you get out your car you risk to down the battery.
Failure of Bluetooth means poor choice August 2, 2007

Such a promising device. Worked great with Google Maps on my Blackberry right until the Bluetooth stopped working. Many people seem to have this problem and Holux support is non existent.
Still great almost two years after purchase June 28, 2007
I purchased the Holux GPSlim 236 almost two years ago and it still works perfectly. I use it [along with iNav iGuidance software] daily and have never had a moments problem. It sits on the dash of my car all day, every day and continues to amaze me with its performance. It initializes quickly and always has enough satellite coverage to find my location. This poor gps receiver has been ABUSED and never gives up. It has been thrown from my dash more than once [during spirited driving] and it still didn't lose its signal. All in all, one of the better tech purchases I have made.
Amazing! May 23, 2007

This works perfect with my XV6700 and the battery on it lats for ever!
This is worth it, you should buy this if you need a GPS recever
