Hi capstone,This sounds similar to a product demonstration National Instruments did, tracking cyclists live on Google Maps. <a href="http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-1603" target="_blank">Check it out!</a> In
this case a PDA was used (as Mike suggested) for acquiring data
(including GPS), which was then sent to a remote server via a mobile
broadband modem.&nbsp; The server then updated Google Maps.&nbsp; The modem used
was not a National Instruments product.&nbsp; The only Wi-Fi product we
currently provide is the NI WAP-37x1 industrial wireless access point,
client, and bridge.&nbsp; It is basically an industrial version of a common
802.11b/g wireless router.&nbsp; This makes it useless for a communication
range of an entire city, but could suffice to give a smaller scale
demonstration.&nbsp;
