For software only dudes:

I was able to buy a gps receiver w bluetooth transceiver, write a program for my Nokia 6620, and get GPS output on the phone display.

It was fun, but market research says GPS is coming to cell phones in a big way, not much room for the little guy.

I still paddle out without any electronics. old-school-fool.
