OK all. Let's step back a bit. First off, GPS for the BookSense is just a suggestion. At this point it's an idea with zero on the board. So before the list is cluttered up even more with requests to join the GPS project, let's wait to see if this is even possible.

I don't want other list members to be confused by this thread, thinking that the BookSense has GPS or is even thinking of offering it today.

Many thanks.

no desire for a voice sense, that seems like a great idea; especially
as I'm
not impressed with the Trekker, it's only possible competition.

and since many gps receivers have a usb interface, it wouldn't have
to be
limitted to the BS XT, unless the 4gb of extra memory must play a
part.

Actually Mike Lawler pointed out that there may not need to be any as
long
as the BookSense could handle the SenseNav program. If its CPU and
RAM can
handle it, then the BookSense XT already could be modified to pair
with the
GPS receiver.

So perhaps none. And hey, I've been wrong before, so keep this
message handy
to remind me.

Raul,

I'm curious as to what hardware changes you had in mind?  assuming
you
would be using an external gps receiver, many of which have a
bluetooth interface, and the rest have a usb interface, I don't see
why any hardware would need changing?

Hello. People has asked and there has been speculation, but I doubt
this would be possible since it would most likely require hardware
changes.
This would mean that your current BookSense would not be able to use
GPS.
There are already other GPS solutions such as a Voice Sense with
SenseNav.
In Addition, the BookSense is marketed as an accessible book reader
and music player.

Many thanks.

release that would include GPS? If so... I'll love my Booksense
even
