Is it possible to link an external GPS to a iPod touch?

I already know I'm gonna hate myself for asking this . . .

For what purpose?

 

From what I remember the iphone cradle isn't compatable with the iPod as tomtom done one specifically for the iPod. Could be wrong but check tomtoms site

 

Combining Waze with your GPS . . . for redundancy?

 

If you have your ipod touch jailbreak, you may try an app called btstack gps from cydia. It will cost you 5$, but it works fine with my dell bt gps.

BTW, will the new ipod touch get GPS?

 

Anything is possible. Buy a Mac, get a developer license, start programming. I'm sure it is possible. On the other hand, for a reasonable price, with reasonable usefulness? No.

 

No. Would need the bluetooth serial data profile, Apple doesn't support this on iOS devices.

Jailbreak is mentioned a few posts up, only hope.

 

There is a much better alternative...

Buy the GNS 2000 GPS GLONASS Receiver. This is made especially for the iPod Touch and wireless-only iPad. By adding the TomTom app to your iPod Touch you have the best solution.
