I aswered just two days ago to the same Q. If the Delorme delivers NMEA
output it will be no problem. You need to solder the right cable only or use
two cables with some mating adapter or even a null modem, depending on what
cables you have (crossed or straight). I run a Jupiter 12 channel GPS on a
MP2k1 with GPSmap and have the moving map output with backlight (very nice
while driving with the car in the night).
