Having lots of fun using the GPS shield. Right now I still don't have an SD card, so no logging.
Thought I would comment out the of the parts of the GPSlogger code dealing with the SD card and logging for now, and play a little with trying to set some of the GPS features - however, for all my best intentions, I am not able to get the if Serial.available() function within my void loop() to return a status that indicates I am ok to read data. It does output to my serial monitor the GPS initialization strings... but once in the void loop, no serial.available success...
I CAN load in a dummy program like blink, and get the default GPS data piped out to my Serial Monitor.
Any ideas? I am sure I am missing something very obvious... thanks!

Re: GPS log shield - Serial port??
ok, nevermind. I should have remembered to rewire some pins and arduino chip jumper. I suspect that is the complete issue.
