RE: [ECOS] GSM/GPRS/GPS board supporting eCos (Falcom XF55 or similar)

Hi Carlos

I like the XF55 and it definitely has it place in the market. The SDK is
reasonably well documented and the fully functional demo applications will
get you going very quickly.

If your application is cost sensitive then it might be worth you while to
look at separate GSM and GPS modules controlled by a standalone
microprocessor. 

Cheers
Gawie

What is your impression of the board?
Is the ecos SDK well documented? All the necessary tools?
Did you check other boards or know others that can fullfill my needs?
