New GPS

GPS RecieverThe main features of this GPS is that it constantly tracks position, so there is no startup wait. Only 1ma power consumption! Hope that sparkfun will get some of these on breakout boards when they arrive.I wonder what the update rate on these will be?

    Hot start modes suck. Fulltime tracking using standby power is the way to do it. It requires juggling 2 batteries, but it gets 14 satellites & stable altitude instantly. The idea obviously caught on in UK but we're not sure Americans R going to bother with the hassle.
