I think I'm interested, but I don't know much about geoport stuff. Does it
go in through the ADB port rather than the serial port, thus freeing up the
latter? Does it have a modem as part of the package, and if so, will only a
software upgrade be needed to make it 28.8 (which mystifies me if it's
possible)? If the answer is yes to all of these questions, why is this
approach so cheap?
