I was thinking... There's lots of old GPS systems available now for cheap.. even new ones are cheap.. to the point they're cheaper than buying the components to make a display.
I picked up a Nuvi 265W, it has bluetooth, and is powered with a Garmin branded STmicro chip, and a 2gb samsung memory chip as well
What I was really wondering is if there's any way to interface this with an arduino... Using the display to show graphs and/or text relating to the state of variables, inputs, and outputs on the Arduino... perhaps access the GPS data (not my primary goal), and perhaps even using bluetooth as a COM port to transfer data to a smartphone? There's tons of possibilities, I'm wondering if it's ever been done?
My current Arduino platforms are the Mega 2560, Uno, and Leonardo
