I think there would be a lot more GPS options for handheld devices if,
in the past, the devices expansion slots hadn't been proprietary. These
days, a lot of the devices just seem to be standardizing on compact
flash, so they can just make generic devices and then write a couple of
drivers and cover most of the handhelds out there. I would hope they
start making good GPSRs to fit in compact flash slots.
