I bought a PCI5-S GPS module and antenna on Ebay for less then 15$. Tried it out last week and it works smiley I soldered some wires to the PCIe card and connected it to an ATmega328 running at 3V3/8MHz. Uploaded one of the examples of the tinygps library and after 10 minutes it gave the right position. http://www.bajdi.com/my-15-gps-module/
