Very good GPS receiver, i've bought two of them for my CarPC's. Good signal even among high buildings, with 9-10 locked satellites all the time, even when mounted on my dashboard (behind the windshield).
Plus it has a magnetic base and nice shape.

In the last 1 year, I have placed the NL-302U sirf star III usb Gps receiver in at least 4 car pc's. It is easy to install as hardware and software, it gives fast and reliable signal. I did not have any quality problems. I and my customers we are absolutely satisfied from this product and I would propose it as the ideal usb Gps receiver for car pc installation.

Works OK with Linux, Slack 11 kernel 2.6.18 had built in drivers that created /dev/tts/USB0 suitable for gpsd (probably earlier kernels too, I think that is the one from /testing). I tried the bundled Windows driver and software, but I don't recall much about them, so it can't have been too horrific. I guess they worked as described. I think the gps was happier to find satellites under Linux for some reason though.... but I can't think of a proper reason why this is that case, unless Ballmer wasthrowing chairs out of Windows at the GPS under XP? ;)
