Default cheap GPS

Hi! I just bought a 650 today off of ebay (not here yet, hopefully I dont get burned) Anyway, I usually use my laptop hooked in my car and use GPS via a CF card. Well, unfourtunatly the Treo doesnt have a CF slot, so ill have to buy a new gps device. The problem is that im cheap. Does anyone know of the cheapest way to be able to use gps on the Treo? I've seen tons of bluetooth GPS devices, however from what I've been reading only certain types will work. Is this true? Also, what would be the best software for your money? i dont need anything fancy like voice commands or recognition, just a map, my placement, and be able to show a route.

Thanks a ton, I look forward to being part of the Treo family.

I know the TomTom 5 was going for $199.99 after a $100 mail in rebate. I don't know if that is still active. Otherwise the least expensive I have seen was $299.

I think that was on palm's website.

Ok, I think I should rephrase my question. Im looking more along the lines of a seperate GPS reciever that will work with the Treo, I can get the software elsewhere. Does anyone if there are any GPS recievers(only) that are compatible with the treo?
