I use this one: http://www.pharosgps.com/products/bluetooth/PT200.htm

Actually, I bought Microsoft Streets and Trips 2005 with GPS locator, it comes with this Pharos GPS receiver, and later on, I bought the Bluetooth adaptor, works perfectly with my laptop and my iPaq HX4705.

Delorme BlueLogger works fine here.
It has an internal recorder as well, so you don't have to have the laptop connected all the time to record your path.

The Belkin model rocks. It's the size of two matchbox cars stacked on top of one another, has a non-skid rubberized base, 10-hour battery and just plain works. I switch it on, throw it on the dash and go. It also has cables to charge from AC, Auto or USB.
