SIM808 GPS/GPRS/GSM Shield For Arduino
just saw on sale @ dfrobot, $32.
what's for:

i used sim908 atmega1284p capture gps , send text location out perioidically, , used rest of 1284 io bunch of other stuff. nice having 1 serial port free usb comms , having 2nd gps/gsm interface.
the 908 has gps antenna on board, 808 has off board.
the 808 has bigger gps antenna, , larger power header , scl/sda pins on uno now. less $, $32 (on sale $40) vs $89.50 908.
i didn't use library, raw commands gps data, parse out parts wanted, , text out periodically.
i haven't tried 808 yet. sim card cover flips install card, vs sliding in on 908.

what's for:
- send , receive gprs data (tcp/ip, http, etc.)
- receive gps data , a-gps data
- send , receive sms messages
- make , receive phone calls
