PCMCIA Card and GPS

My vehicles currently have mobile computers with a KPC650 card and external antenna for internet access with Verizon. I would like to use a card that will give me GPS capability. Can someone recommend a card to use? How easy is it to access the GPS coordinates?

Thanks

I know of no PCMCIA or other EVDO data only device that gives GPS, though it is possible. Some phones have this capability, however it is far easier and probably cheaper just to add a separate GPS unit to your system. 3GStore sells the KR1 in a kit with GPS (with the info accessible over the internet) - I'm the author and get a royalty, so I'm biased, but I'm running my KPC650 in my KR1 with GPS attached.
