I've been doing some work with Delome's Earthmate GPS receiver. It doesn't use the
NMEA protocol, but rather a binary protocol that will take some time to understand.
I'd stick to a receiver that uses the NMEA protocol or keep in touch and I'll let you
know when my shared library is done.

Hello all,
I am about to embark upon the creation of a program that will require
the incorporation of a GPS system during phase 2 of the project. Here
are my questions :)
1) What GPS systems work with Palms, and what is needed for them?
(Earthmate Road Warrior from Delorme and some Garmin models seem
possible, but I am unsure what is best and what is easiest)
2) Is the communication (programmatically speaking) with these devices
strictly through the serial port, or do some devices come with a
specific SDK?
3) Is it possible to use any of these in satellite forms, or does it
require the lower level access of codewarrior?
The answers to these questions will be greatly appreciated =)
