I currently have M$ Pocket Streets and I am very happy with it. I am looking at purchasing a GPS System any feedback would be greatly appriciated.

I'm also interested in finding out more information about Pocket Streets, specifically with the Globalsat GPS. Any and all information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

A gps that can output NMEA data is required. I have a stand alone gps (an eTrex) that works ok via a dodgy serial cable/ powered null modem setup. (Search the gps forum for more info on this).

I can't speak for the CF card gps, in fact I'm quite interested to know how they communicate, is it via a comport style interface?

Is NMEA-0183 newer that NMEA 2.0?

I just got a global sat CF GPS and it works great...no wires and always has a fix, even indoors.

got it for $76 off ebay and no regrets

NMEA-0183 is the standard (vs 0180 and 0182), the version like v2.0, v2.1, v2.2 generally refer to the version no of the 0183 standard. I think most CF gps receiver are NMEA-0183 (v2.1 or v2.2) compliant nowadays. It would be safe to assume that S & T will work all CF gps receivers.......
