hi there, i'm trying to find out if there is a gadget i can buy that indicates the exact actual longitude and latitude of where it is, so far i've only been able to find GPS's that show you maps and directions. i live outside of the us ( haiti) so those are quite useless.

thanks

You can get longitude & latitude on mapquest.

If you want to go with a GPS, GPS works worldwide so the fact you are in Haiti is not a problem. You just have to have one that has the places you are interested in its base map or it has loaded maps. Also, some GPS car nav units) don't give you longitude & latitude and some do. So if this is what you want, you just have to read up on the particular unit first.
