GPSKnoppix

How about a version of Knoppix for GPS users.
It could use some software like GPSdrive
( http://www.gpsdrive.cc/index.shtml )
There can be versions with maps for different regions of the country.
Download your region iso, pop it in your laptop with gps plugged in, and track your movement in real time.
And for Ham users that use APRS, you can include xastir
http://www.xastir.org/

I'm just throwing this out there...

any thoughts?

This page has most of the many customization already out there.

If I remember correctly this GIS customization might also have GPS stuff on it.
