Default Best BT GPS receiver

I'm using TomTom Navigator 6 on my Treo 755P with a generic NMEA 0183 Bluetooth receiver and it doesn't really work that well. (ie: time to fix on satellites, connecting with the Treo, etc).

So what is the reccomended gps I should use? Should I try and get a Palm or TomTom brand receiver? What about the SiRF Star 3?

Any suggestions, advice would be great!!!

Thanks Lee

I'm using the Freedom Keychain Bluetooth GPS with TeleNav $9.99/mo (Web based) and Treo 755P.
No problems so far.

Sprint has a Nav plan for $20/mo. (Web based I think)
and Palm Navigator has the car mount/reciever for @$175. (It works off a card I think)

I use the TomTom wireless BT GPS receiver w/ my 650 & 700. Didn't have any problems. 755p should be here later in the week, I'll let you know how it works.
