Hi All,

I'm looking at combining a 10" Android tablet with a USB GPS with the Android OziExplorer. Got all the bits, but it isn't coming together.

Checked on the Yahoo Ozi user's forum and discovered that an Android tablet isn't capable of accepting a USB GPS. Checked with Des (Ozi's creator) who confirmed that to the best of his knowledge it simply can't be done.

I can usually blunder my way through Windows stuff, but Android is way outside my experience. I've got Ozi installed and it looks excellent, but I need to interface with a gps.

Questions -

There have been posts here reporting success with Android implementations, but has anyone managed to get Ozi to talk to a USB connected GPS? If so - how????

What type of setups have been found to work? Internal GPS? Bluetooth GPS?

Help please!

Cheers

John
