Just got set up with a new GPS system, here are the particulars:

Computer Fujitsu Stylistic Tablet ST-5011D 10.4" Daylight view display (Bought used on E-Bay for $259.00) screen rotated to portrait mode.

Software DeLorme Street Atlas USA 2010 in Netbook mode. (Bought on Amazon $36.70)

GPS Receiver BT-5 Bluetooth GPS Receiver (Bought at Computer Geeks for $22.00). It's the little white box in the picture. Range 10 Meters.

No wires at all unless I use the Car Adapter for the Computer. Battery life on computer about 6 hours.

Hey, that looks like a sweet little setup!

Can you plug in a backup camera too?

You could plug in the back up camera with the proper PC interface. It's just a PC running Windows XP so a converter would do the trick.

One of these will interface the Backup camera, but only one.
