3.) in GPS settings I chose COM2 for the program port & COM0 (the outgoing port I set above)
4.) In Live Search settings I selected COM2.
5.) In Live Search I picked the Select new Location using GPS
After that there is a long pause followed by a message that says location cannot be found.
Defective unit? Incompatible with WLS?

I couldn't get mine working with WLS and Google Maps either (although I believe others in this thread have). I did get it working with TomTom though pretty easily. If you have access to some other GPS software other than the two listed above, that might be a better test as to whether or not the unit is defective.
