Hi, Mike.
        I  can confirm that this didn't work on any  3.x version of the
software. I did try it with a Touch and Phone running 3.x, and the results
were the same, they seemed not even to see the receiver. Now, however, we
know the underlying code is there because the Braille displays are using it.
If you have a few minutes to give it a shot, I, for one, would be most
appreciative.

I may give this another try, perhaps it's changed in version 4, it didn't
work in version 3 with a gps receiver, apple does keep pretty tight control
over what you can use and what you can't, sometimes too much in my opinion.
