[ gpsdrive ] Re: Support for USB GPS?

[kd4e <kd4e@verizon.net>]

Same discussion as below but if Bluetooth will not
be supported for quite a while could I use a USB model?

Seems many of the new GPS devices are USB rather than
Serial.

Sure hate to fuss around with a USB-Serial adapter if
that can be avoided.

Still would be really awesome to avoid cables all together
with Bluetooth!  :-)
