» Cydia - xGps and xGps Util 1.0.0-1 available

The blog page of the XGPS project has announced that their GPS hardware is ready. The hardware they are using is a Sirf III 20 channels GPS module from USBLOBALSAT and the PIC18F25J10 chip. According to the developers it’s working perfectly and best of all, it hardly uses any power from your iPhone or iPod GPS.
» XGPS iPhone hardware finalized. Finally GPS for the First gen iPhone

I found a new program in development during my daily internet searches.
It’s called XGps, and the website reveals the app as a Open GPS hardware and software solution for iPhone and iPod touch.
For the moment there’s only 1 screenshot and some very little information on the webiste.
I will keep watching this and will report back to you when there’s more information.

One thing that bothers me though is the fact that the latest update is from late april.. only one month ago..
