[NTLK] GPS CF Newton-Compatible Flash Cards

Folks
I've been looking into using the Newton as a GPS device. Websites on the matter
say that you need a PCMCIA or CF GPS receiver that is NMEA compatible. Is that
all? Sounds too easy. Has anyone tried the SD GPS receivers with a converter
to PCMCIA?

I'm looking at a GlobalSat BC337 Compact Flash SiRF on auction. Has anyone else
used this on a Newton? I thought about getting a Haicom unit but they are
really rare around here.

Thanks in advance
Cheers

Tony
