I’m not sure if you have access to Delorme Products but they are working on an interface for their new USB GPS for hand helds. You can get the USB version of their Earthmate now and use it with your laptop as a NEMA 0183 (It works fine on both my W2K and XP Pro machines). They are working on a battery pack/serial adapter which is to ship in the next couple of months. I really like the new USB GPS receiver – it’s small, sensitive and initializes faster than my previous GPS. Also, it even worked inside my house – I was never able to sync with satellites from inside my house before.
Here’s a link you may want to look at: http://www.delorme.com/earthmate/

Be sure to check out the PDA interfaces that are either available or being readied for shipment. I have not had time to check out whether any of these products are US controlled export so you may want to look into that aspect.

Good point- especially when the antennae will only be maybe 75mm apart on my iPAQ.
Hadn't thought of that, oh well there's a nice toy I won't be buying.
