GPS

I'm trying to get a sense of how feasible it is to bolt on GPS support to support, e.g. sending your latitude/longitude over FreakWAN.

There doesn't seem to be much prior art on using GPS on the tbeam as-is; the only thing I could find was this forum conversation. In there, the author resolves their issue by using the loboris port of micropython. I tried flashing with that version and adding FreakWAN, but it never got passed a black screen, whereas it boots fine with vanilla micropython.

Is this the right avenue to go down? Or has someone found another way to work with GPS+FreakWAN on tbeam?
