Taiwanese company Kemiz has this really cool solar-powered Bluetooth GPS receiver that should work with any Bluetooth device such as a PDA or a Smartphone. With the help of the solar power, the GPS can run for 30 hours instead of 20 hours with the battery alone.

It's not even too expensive with a price of $150 at Semsons
