Gary, I think I might know what he's talking about. The T is the
version that is optimized for time service. There was some talk on
this mailing list (I think) about enhancing gpsd to know about
the special features, but uBlox charges a hefty premium for the part
and I don't have one, so that never got done.
Denny, we're big fans of the uBlox chips here - I designed a device
around them once. We don't know of any issues when they're used as
location devices. Can you be more specific?
