GPS for the Nintendo DS

Thumb-Gps-WholeNice hack! I have connected a Lassen iQ GPS module to my serial interface. Maps are downloaded from Google Maps servers with a small script. Google maps consist of 128×128 pixel tiles.

Zoom levels are possible but require to have a few tile-sets, one for each zoom level. Link.
