2G iPOD Touch (3.0) + Bluetooth + GPS Receiver =?

Karoma · 2009-08-13 18:21:17

Sorry if this has been asked & answered before, but I found nothing by Search.php or Google... Since the iPOD Touch (3.0 firmware) has Bluetooth, does anyone know if one can connect and successfully utilise a Bluetooth GPS receiver?

I don't think the iPod touch supports the Bluetooth serial port protocol, which I believe is required for the GPS unit.

Aye, from poking around further it seems you're right.
Thanks.
