Quote:My experience either first person or from dozens of customer reports is the majority of USB GPS will work with GPSNavX and MacENC for real-time position plotting, but they do require the requisite OS X driver be installed.
You asked me to provide a list of my GPS devices that did not work. Can you be so kind as to provide a list of those which do work and the driver associated with them? Yes, I'm aware of your links to the two drivers on your website and I'm also aware that the FTDI driver (v2) which you recommed hasn't been updated since October 2005, the Keyspan in November 2007, and Prolific in November 2005 -- not that it'd help since it is a USB to Serial driver.
My point is that all of these are legacy software products. All I'm asking is why GPSNavX can't keep up?
I'm not trying to champion a cause here; I sail for a living. I trusted GPSNavX for a few years. Now I'm very aware that I cannot. Serial devices? Really!?!
