  Subject: [TI-H] Connecting a gps tracking 
  mouse to the Ti-89
  
  
  
  Hi everybody!
   
  some days ago I read an article about the way one 
  can connect a simple gps-receiver to a pda via the serial port. I 
  thought: this should be possible with the Ti-89 as well!
  As I am a novice either in Ti89 hardware as well 
  as in its assembly programing, I am not sure if Ti-89s hardware in 
  generell is cabable of receiving gps-data via its link cable! For 
  example: the gps serial port will send the data with 4800 bits per sec. Is 
  there a way to tell the Ti-89 to receive data with a specific transfer rate? 
  Is there a kind of a time counter in the calculator (eg for speed calculations 
  etc.)? 
   
  Thanks for any help!
