I have a NavSync CW19 GPS receiver which uses a Ceva chipset. I would
like to know the difference between Sirf Star family chipsets and
other chipsets available. Is a receiver which uses Sirf Star chipset
more accurate than other receivers?

me too!
I'm trying to choose a good handheld for me and I can't decide between
the "GPSMAP 60CCSx" and the "eTrex Vista HCx" due to this 2 questions
(that www.garmin.com fails to answer):

- how does the Sirf Star III compares to the MediaTek ?
- how fast is the processor in both units?

other that that I think the Vista wins:
