Lately we've been talking about GPS for PPCs in the forums. We've discussed the Pharos unit, but now (through the help of Dave's Ipaq) I've found this SDIO GPS unit on a german site. (Translated version is here)
I can't find a price but this looks pretty cool and will travel well. What do you think?
I can't find a price and I'm guessing that it would work with Microsoft Mappoint 2004 (NMEA compliant....just now voice prompts. ) 12 parallel satellite pursuit channels for the fast collection and recollection.
High-speed signal collection using of 1920 time/frequency search channels.
inserted Tracking loop processor WAAS/EGNOS demodulator.
low current consumption with SiRF star ii/cLp chip set.
after SDIO kind of condition 1.10F
inserted 16MB Flash memory (optional)
inserted loadable Akku for memory and RTC Backup and for nearly time ton roofridge fixed (TTFF).
supports NMEA 0183 v2.2 data minutes and SiRF binary code.
Trickle power mode provides for less current consumption.
improved algorithms - SnapLock and SnapStart for best navigation achievement in cities as well as valley and forest environment.
supported SD Kartenanschlus, suitably for PDA, Handheld PC or PC.

knelson,
How loud are the voice prompts? Do they have a speaker built into the car holder? I'm afraid that I would be disappointed with not being able to hear the turn by turn voice prompts over my Toshiba speaker.

they are fairly load on my IPAQ, but I a need to get a car holder and I am looking at the amp models. They are not loud enough to hear over your stereo.
