Please be more friendly, yeah?.

I talked to janosch before, and he said that the driver is not generic.
i looked at the orogen and saw your mb500 dependency so i don't digged 
in more, because i don't think everyone should depend on this specific 
driver if he want to use an gps...

however, yeah the driver already support the gpsd as i NOW saw, but i 
still think this should be separated from the specialized mb500 driver...
