The Sirfstar chips (such as the new Delorme GPS - www.delorme.com) seem to 
perform well and they're very small.  It has no antenna jack but it does 
speak NMEA and their SIRF protocol.   They're cheap too (90 bucks or so I 
think).

Not sure if that was along your lines or not, but thought I'd throw it out 
there :-)
