well, although this is a linux mailing list, for GPS graphic device i
suggest using QNX, becouse it could be a good solution, you should also
check out picoBSD and tomsrtbt the mini linux distro, all depending on your
exact needs.
http://www.freebsd.org/~picobsd/
http://www.toms.net/rb/home.html
i love them both i they work great
for a qnx demo disk (qnx DOES cost money, but they have a very good pricing
system, not two clients gets the same price :)

even without needing to build an real time application, all of these OSs
make a nice floppy box :)
