Re: [A/S] GPS Device - WOW!
I don't think there would be any conflict if you are using a modern laptop
with built-in modem and using the new small GPS from DeLorme (connects to
the USB port), or a separate serial port for the older DeLorme (or other
brand) GPS..
If your laptop uses a separate modem connected to your (only) serial port,
then you would definitely want to use the small USB GPS to avoid having to
connect/disconnect cables to switch.
I think it is neat that you can use the internet while cruising down the
road. We have a primitive cell phone and we would have one heck of a bill
if we did that!
