Can I use an external GPS chip with a Gboard?

Hello,

I am working on developing a prototype for a device. The device should be able to get the location via GPS and send SMS to particular phone numbers. Also, it must support internet connectivity.

The Gboard (http://imall.iteadstudio.com/development-platform/arduino/arduino-compatible-mainboard/im120411004.html) has a SIM900 GSM/GPRS module in it, but I'm not sure if i can connect an external GPS chip to it.

Or should I look for shields which support GSM/GPRS as well as GPS?

Thanks,
Shrenik Lad
