[kismac] Re: GPS software

A serial or USB solution to using a GPS system on a laptop computer is not very elegant when opposed to a Compact Flash or PCMCIA solution.

What do others use their PCMCIA slot for anyway? Mine is unused except for the occasional access to images from a digital camera.

Apple should have a pretty good idea of the size of their user base.

Why don't they make a Compact Flash or PCMCIA GPS system and/or
interface software.

They did it with AirPort, why not GPS?

If you would, check it out and if you feel the need, sign it.  It is
definitely  a worthy cause.

Thanks for the help!!!
