I don't know of any GPS cards other than the extremely expensive
PCMCIA card which can be easily found by doing the web search I'm too
lazy to do right now. Looking at the specs for the Pretec card, which
is still not yet in production, it will be supported out of the box by
gpsd / pygps, because it spits out NMEA at 4800bps on the standard CF
serial arrangement.

I'm using a Delorme Earthmate and an iPAQ serial cable.
