Yabut.... You can only use it with one application open at once. It
hogs the port, and won't let another app access it until it closes.
Delorme also makes a similar utility. Does the same thing. Word to the
wise, don't install BOTH utilities on the same computer unless you
like pulling hair. Belkin also makes one, as does Magellan. They all
do the same thing, and they are interchangeable with most software.
But only one at a time.
