PSP-290 GPS receiver tips and tricks

[noobodie]

I tried the foil shield today. It really did add 1-2 bars to the signal. I don't have a car mount yet so I had the psp on the passenger seat and it worked 80% of the time. It was quite simple to make. I just used the cardboard packaging that came with the psp-290 since it was about the right size. Does the foil have any negative effect on the psp?

I'm planning to get one of the windshield mount

Hope I can cut the foil shield so that I can still have that on while mounted.
