Will the KR2 be getting the same GPS treatment the KR1 got? It was my biggest selling point on the KR1, and I'd love to upgrade but not at the expense of losing that functionality...

The addition of support for using the modem's gps (like the TopGlobal), rather than requiring a separate dongle, would be nice too.

The problem is the KR2 isn't Linux based so I can't add the capability to the Software.

However apparently Cradlepoint did the KR2, and their own 2.1.0 firmware has support for a limited number of GPS-in-EVDO modems, so it might be brought to the KR2, or you might go to a cradlepoint.

Which gives me a thought...
