Sadly, even a cheapo GPS will add another 50to the cost of a node.  
Current costing is around the 100 pound mark, and the cheapest GPS I can 
find is 50 pounds.  A lookup table on a master node would be easier, 
although what happens when unconnected nodes authenticate to the connected 
nodes, I don't know!
