Does any one have any experience with it?

Thanks

The question was not for me but i'll anwser anyway because i'am interested too, i would like to use odroid c1 as pc car on android and would like to know if there is anyone gps unit working with the board ?

[odroid]

We are evaluating an affordable USB GPS on Android as well as Ubuntu now.
Implementation will be done by end of next week and post the result here.
Stay tuned!

I just came across the adafruit ultimate GPS hat for the RPi.
Looking at the mounting wholes it might work?!
Are RPi hats physically compatible with C1?

[odroid]

It should work.
But you need to change the UART node name to ttyS2 from ttyAMA0.

Great! The C1 is getting more awesome by the day
Also there's the non-hat GPS version from Adafruit which will certainly work.
An USB version from HK is a welcomed addition and might be easier and more versatile to integrate...
So many project ideas and so little time

I have used many GPS modules and this one has beaten all of them.
Super tiny and only costs $20.

Just to see how small this is. It's the GPS unit with the antenna!
