Some have inquired whether they can use an off the shelf Bluetooth GPS with iNavX and an iPod Touch. Unfortunately the answer is no. Apple's policy on this is:
"If Your Application interfaces, communicates, or otherwise interoperates with or
controls an iPhone Accessory (as defined above) through Bluetooth or AppleÂ’s 30-pin dock
connector, then the accessory must be licensed under Apple's MFi Program."

So as soon as Apple approved Bluetooth GPS or GPS receivers that can connect to the 30 pin dock connector are available, iNavX will support them.
