Has an embedded gps version of the talk2 board ever been considered?
Hello billcmp,
Not that the moment. GPSs are quite energy demanding devices so it wouldn't be a good fit with such low-power board. Saying that you should be able to easily connect a stand-alone GPS modules, like the Neo-6m to the Whisper Node.
The GPSs modules normally communicate via Serial Port, which is might prefer to use a "Software Serial" instead of occupy the TX/RX pins, leaving those free for programming and debugging. Software Serial can be configured on any free digital pin.
