Meet my expectation
The GPS sensor was received in time and in good condition. I plug the sensor into my little laptop and it started right away to be "receiving data". It works well with my MS street 2007. Even with the old map, I can locate many new places easily with GPS and the coordinates. Only thing that sometimes bothers me is the initiation of the sensing is not always instant (the beginning communication between the sensor and the satellites, could be up to 5 minutes) since I turn on and shut off the pc all the time. However I do not think it is the problem with the device and it is reasonable. My next step may probably be buying a new version of the MS Street.

It does as advertized
The GPS works well however it would be more convenient to have a Bluetooth version. It works well in the car as long as you have it in the window.

I GOT WHAT I PAID FOR
I ORDERED A MICROSOFT GPS 360 MADE BY PHAROS USA. IT ARRIVED TODAY. EASY ASSEMBLY, JUST PLUG IN CABLE TO ANTENNA/RECEIVER AND USB INTO MY FAIRLY NEW DELL LAPTOP I USE FOR WORK. I PLUGGED IT INTO MY LAPTOP AND A LOUD BUZZ OCCURRED AND MY SCREEN WENT BLUE WITH AN ERROR. DANG. I UNPLUGGED IT AND THE BLUE SCREEN REBOOTED MY LAPTOP. NOW, THIS IS MY WORK LAPTOP WITH ALL OF MY DATA ON IT AND I THOUGHT ABOUT TRYING TO PLUG THE 360 IN AGAIN. I DID AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I WILL TRY THIS ONE MORE TIME BEFORE I THROW IT IN THE TRASH. SERIOUS, IN THE TRASH. $29.00? WELL, I GOT WHAT I PAID FOR DIDN'T I? SO DON'T YOU TRY IT. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.

Works great with Microsoft Streets Trips 2013
I was skeptical but plugged into my ASUS laptop with windows 8 and streets and trips 2013. Was plug and play, worked like a charm and streets and trips picked up the gps right away. Worked inside my house, my garmin wont even do that.....worth the $36.

It works
I use this in combination with streets and tips on my CF-U1 for navigation, decent accuracy and acquisition times. However I would recommend picking up a newer better unit

Harsh sun!
These are decent quality, but they don't last long if you use them on your dashboard in your car. Gone through 3 in 1 yr so far.

Works well and does what it claims.
Works great. One needs to know how to download and install the free drivers, using Device Manager in the Windows O/S before it will work as a GPS but once that is done it works perfectly. It's even got a sexy, blue, LED glow when connected. There are no printed instructions that came with mine but it was simple enough that it didn't really need any but some people might be lost without them. In some of these reviews some folks say it's a fake. It is not a fake. It's a working GPS receiver. I suspect they never downloaded and installed the necessary drivers in which case it would sure seem like a fake.

I'll Keep It...
4 Stars - because it's more than just ok. I was surprised to see it's much bigger than what use to come in the "Streets & Trips" software box - before they started using the USB type receiver. The wire is larger and stiffer, but I guess that's necessary for shielding. I use it on my 10 inch Tablet with MS Streets & Trips 2013. It works well so far. It locks in faster, and holds the signal a little better than the smaller ones from a few years back. Not bad for the price.
