Coming Q3 of 2011, ST-Micro will begin selling a Single-Chip GPS IC called the Teseo II.  It has an ARM core integrated into it, which should help reduce the time it takes to get a fix, and simplify integration into any hardware project.

Pricing is set at $6 in volumes of 500k, so for hobby work it may be a cost/time trade-off.

    My wife and I just upgraded to Garmin Dakota 20 GPS units. Is there a plan to upgrade MacCaching to work with the new Devices?
    I can’t find a contact email for macCaching.
