GPS opinions sought!

Hello all,
I'm looking for the collective views of all of you on handheld GPS units and software. I recently purchased a Dell Axim X51v PDA, and also purchased a Holux 236 bluetooth gps receiver and Ostia 7.5 software for it. After going through 3 axims to get a good working one and several tries to get the Ostia software and the Holux bluetooth receiver working, I finally have a portable gps unit. It is not without flaws, however - in the past I borrowed a gps mouse and Co-pilot software from my brother, and used it with my laptop on a cross-country trip. I feel that the CoPilot software actually worked much smoother than the Ostia software does.
So, what kind of opinions/experience do you have on the subject?
Thanks for your replies!
