So the GPS intermediate driver adds a nice wrapper around the messages received from a connected GPS device.     So I got thinking today,  this could form the basis of simple way to make a network connected timesource.    We get sent from the GPS device a time that is derived from the atomic clocks in the orbiting satellites.

Now I know what you're all thinking, why don't you just use an Internet time service,   but what's the fun in that....

+ this could be another great example of an old pocket PC making a great server...

So I just happen to have a Imate JasJar with a cracked screen lying around.    Windows Mobile 5, added the GPS intermediate driver,  so maybe base this project around this platform.

So, cool project?
