Is it true that the Mpx220 cannot use any of the GPS receivers as they require a COM Bluetooth profile which the Mpx does not support?

I would like to purchase a Bluetooth GPS receiver to use with my
Motorola MPx220 smartphone and my Windows XP laptop. Buy.com has the
Belkin F8T051 for $157. Is the Belkin any good and is this a fair
price? Also, I would like to hard wire this so that I don't have to
use a lighter plug in my vehicle.

Thanks,
Yogi

David,

I was able to get it to work, I have a MPX220 and a Pharos Bluetooth
GPS...it required a change in the registry and re-paring after use.
