I have successfully used Telit GSM modules to send GPS data with GPRS on gumstix with AT commands and PPPD + Chat But I think for a solution as simple as this you don't even need a gumstix. You can simply use the module + PIC + your GPS device to send data to a static IP on the internet without the need of gumstix. -----Original Message----- From: gum...@li...

Subject: [Gumstix-users] GPS Transponder Hi all, I would like to use Gumstix to build a GPS transponder. It would need to have a GPS unit as well as a communications module of some kind. It would need to periodically take GPS fixes, and then communicate these fixes to a server on the Internet. GPRS or HSDPA would be fine, both are available in the areas of interest. I have not been able to find a cellular communications module for Gumstix though. Wifi will not suffice, as the transponders will usually not be within range of a usable Wifi signal. I have been quoted a price on these units, however I'm sure that they can be made far more cheaply using Gumstix.
