Over priced for what you get IMNSHO.  GPS modules can't be more than 
$5 given that they're included in tablets and smart phones.  Now if 
that price included two Bluetooth serial ports I'd be the first to purchase it.

Darn.  Looks like they've discontinued the D710A.    I don't know 
what the D710A went for a few weeks ago in USD so maybe my it was 
priced at $680 then.
