Default GPS system

we fly in USA and own a glider, we need a portable system, yes we want
to upload the data to OLC, basic navigation is good (we can deal with
PDA etc), price range $ 500


Naviter's Oudi is a pretty tidy plug-n-play at that price, with first
class support from Naviter and lots of help available from individuals
here and elsewhere.

I'd agree with John. Install LK8000 on a PNA, mount it and set up a power
supply, and you are away. I use an iPAQ 314, but have set up several Navman
Mio M400, which are just as good, and cheap. But don't forget we all
still navigate with paper maps, the gps is only an aid!
You can use the $400 you have left for launches.
