Maning,
a lot of the items on ebay.co.uk allow international shipment, without
prohibitive cost:

I own this one, which works fine on Ubuntu Linux (although with a bit of
fiddling to get it to work at firstm being u nfamiliar withh everything):

It's ?30, and only ?5 shipping to the phils, which totals PHP2367 at the
moment.
I always use it with bluetooth, leaving it on the dashboard while having
the computer somewhere else in the car. Battery lasts for at least 24
hours, maybe even longer. You can charge with cigarette lighter adapter
or USB cable, both included (at least when I bought it). A cool feature
is that it uses a standard old-style Nokia battery! Should be easy to
get replacements :)
Can log to memory or straight to the computer. Logging interval
adustable down to 1 sec (a bit tricky, command line only, but at least
it's possible - and you only have to do that once anyway)
Struggles a bit in urban canyons, but other than that I'm very happy
with it.
And it uses the MTK II chipset, which apparently is much better than the
older SIRF ones - but this is just what I've read.
Ronny.

Hi,
Any idea of the cost of GPS data loggers in the Philippines? I'm
looking for the very basic small sized high sensitivity logger with
bluetooth connection you can interface with a smart phone or a laptop.
