Fugawai has some software for this. Their real-time tracking software starts at $295 for a single vehicle. It can send back location info via TCP/IP. http://www.gps4fun.com/fug_tracker.php Of course, if you have a HAM radio license, you could use APRS - Automatic Position Reporting System. -Mike -- Mike Outmesguine President, TransStellar, Inc.

For example, Hook my GPS to my laptop (typical wardriving setup), connect to the Internet using my Sprint Phone, and somehow transmit the data to my home computer via the Internet. This is incredibly simple in theory, but where would I find software to do this? The software would have to take incoming serial data on the laptop/PDA, forward it to my home via the Internet, and the home computer would have to translate these packets into data that seems to be coming from the Serial port for Mapping software to accept it. The end result would be a live tracking map showing the location of the roaming GPS device. - Paul
