about our other stuff
On most shopping type websites, the category for things that don't fit into other categories is either called miscellaneous or not called anything at all, with 1000 other categories (I counted) created to cover everything. Both of these approaches displease me. So I guess in a pretty weak attempt to fractionally differ ourselves from the masses, but mainly to appease my oft-maligned anal retentiveness particularness, we (well, I) thought we'd call this category what it actually is - which is literally all the "other stuff".

And there's quite a lot of other stuff...

From nautical instruments and navigational aids to travel accessories and GPS units, with everything inbetween and not so inbetween, we carry all kinds of things, there's too much stuff to list. Just have a bit of a look around, mash the 'Push Me' button a couple times (you know you want to) and you'll get the idea.

As always, if there's any stuff we don't have that you think we should have, we'd love to hear from you.

The ND-100S USB GPS dongle is a highly sensitive GPS receiver that is ideally suited for use with laptops, notebooks, tablets and UMPC devices.

You can plug the ND-100S directly into your notebook, laptop or tablet, comparable USB GPS dongles on the market require that you use a USB extension cable to extend the GPS receiver away from the host device so that a GPS position fix can be obtained.

The built-in antenna with factory tuned RF circuitry,blocks unwanted interference and allows the ND-100S to quickly obtain GPS position fixes.
