Well, after a tip from Anders, I’ve put in an order for a GPS puck that will attach to my laptop via USB. It’s getting sent from over east, and only cost $AUD134.20 total (including postage etc), so I reckon that’s pretty good. It was purchased via eBay, using a ‘Buy Now’ option on a dealer who appears to basically use eBay as a shopfront.

I should receive the device either tomorrow (Friday) or on Monday at work, so I will have to drop in and check the mailbox there tomorrow afternoon to see if it’s in yet.

Now I need to get my hands on some sort of mapping program so that I can visualize the data that I collect while stumbling…
