k.  I'll throw a topic out there for general discussion.  Anyone know of 
a decent but cheap GPS tool that can capture data to an SD card?  I'm 
looking to capture some tracks/paths in NMEA 0183 format (hope I got the 
number right).

I would prefer a tool that works well with Linux of course.  I was in 
Best Buy a couple weeks ago and it seems they only carry things that 
work with Windows (that they know of...).

The GPS tool is only one part of a somewhat larger project I have in 
mind, but I need to start with the data collection...

Thanks for the thoughts.

RE: Linpus.  Thanks for the offer Cam, but I think I'll stick with 
Kubuntu for now... :)
