The III series contains the very first GPS chip I designed. It's a
power hog. The newer versions are much better and MUCH cheaper.
I'd just buy a new one. Like the SiRF Earthmate unit (also one of my
chip designs :) you can get with Street Atlas USA 2004 for $129.95
total (software and Earthmate).

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

I have a portable electronic navigation system - a Pilot III from Garmin- which
I use to find my way around the counties in the state where I work. It operates
via batteries or by pluging it into the cigarette lighter.
While using the navigation system, the batteries exploded. As I removed the
batteries from the battery compartment, I accidently broke off the 1
inch-by-half inch metal plate -with half-inch springs on it- attached to the
edge of the battery compartment. I lost that part and and I need it replaced.
I have been to Radio Shack, an auto parts accesory store, and a hardware store
and none of them have that piece.
Does anyone know how and where I can get this simple piece that has been
getting considerbly more difficult to obtain than I had anticipated? Your help
would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
