Are there available GPS cards for the Zaurus?

I ran a google and came up with a bunch of people asking this question, so I figured I would ask here as well. Does anyone know of a GPS card for the Sharp Zaurus? If so, who makes it?

I found this link. Hope it helps you

It is a list of CF/PCMCIA cards that work or don't work under linux. I saw at least one GPS card listed there.

Good Luck. If you run across one that works, I'm sure everyone (myself included) would be interested in hearing about it. Keep us posted.

Thanks for the link. I will do some research and will let everyone know if I find one.

I think Garmin makes a number of CF GPS cards that work with the Z. I've been dying for an SD GPS unit so I can keep a wireless card in the CF slot, but unfortunately the Zaurus can't do SD-I/O yet, so that bites. I have seen people 'hack-up' a serial cable connection to get it to work that way though.
