Here is the gps module I plan on getting (the last one on the page). Besides that all I need is something to capture and pass along the data it receives from the gps module. For that I'm thinking this will do the trick. I'm considering two different ways of passing the data along to the user. One is to interface the stamp with a cheap prepaid cell phone that can be called which would trigger it txting the current location back to the caller. The cell phone option can look several different ways besides the example I just gave. Another option is to add a wireless ethernet card which would latch on to unsecured networks at every opportunity and upload its data (everything it's captured since it's last upload). You guys think I can pull it off with the stuff I'm looking at? You know my goal, how would you go about accomplishing it? The requirements are that it be as small as possible, totally self contained and as energy efficient as it possibly can be since it may be inaccessible for long periods of time (like a week or so) every now and then.
I think I'm gonna get this too. Thanks for the advice guys!
