Using recent examples I'm still not sure why you'd get the $40
Adafruit MTK versus the $70 ($35 quant. 1) Synergy Ublox.
Unless you're like me and you just want a variety of devices.
===================================
Paul,
Try comparing costs when shipped the UK, versus buying a locally sourced
Adafruit module. May be different in the US.
It still consumes more power, takes more effort to interface to the
Raspberry Pi, results in a bigger overall assembly, doesn't come with an
antenna, and you can't realistically use the extra precision in NTP etc.
etc. Engineering-wise, it's an unnecessary extra expense.
But I have one just for fun, and as a reference against which others might
be compared.
Cheers,
David
