Hello,
Oh heck, If whatever it takes to adapt the gps card to the newton is
less than a foot long and doesn't weigh more than my newton, I'd be
quite pleased to have something that does GPS. The newton screen and
the newtons economy with the battery power consumption makes it a nice
portable map. I don't know if running a GPS from the card slot would
take lots of power but I doubt it would be worse than a WiFi card and I
could live with that sort of power use.
cheers,
Randy
