[1] this is taken care of in recent versions of gpsylon .. the necessary 
rxtx serial libraries (osx,windows,linux) are delivered with the binary 
release and used automagically. I tried this on XP and it worked good.

[2] gpsylon parses GARMIN and NMEA. You get infos on available 
satellites and current position and such. I don't know how routes are 
supported.

Hope this helps ..ede
