Default Bluetooth GPS?

I have an i-Blue 737 BT GPS. I have it set up for COM2 and I can not get it to work correctly. I have tried it with GPS Tuner, GPS Gate, OziExplorer, iGuidance and Google Maps and it will not work with any of them. The only program it works with is Tom Tom 6. I had each program set to look at COM2. Any ideas?

Smile Same hardware working fine



I have an iMate JasJam with exactly the same GPS which I purchased today.

In conjunction with WM6 Black & Tomtom 6 it is working fine.

It is appearing on COM0:

tomtom is well known for hogging gps all for itself and not letting anything else play.
Head to the forums at pocketgpsworld.com

to use my Pharos GPS I had to open an outgoing port on the 8525 bluetooth section I think com9 before it would talk to the gps.
