 # TeleGPS
 
-This is a GPS-based position tracker and logger.
-
-TeleGPS is currently in development, with a handful of prototype
-boards built. Production units will eventually be available from the 
-[Garbee and Garbee](https://shop.gag.com) web 
-store.
+This is a GPS-based position tracker and logger.  It uses the same GPS
+receiver and similar radio to our flight computers, but does not include
+pyro circuits.  This allows the board to be small and light, so that it will
+fit well anywhere you need a good GPS tracker.
 
 For the latest TeleGPS firmware and related ground station software, please

+The TeleGPS application runs on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. It's written 
+in [Java](http://java.com) and offers the
+same functionality and interface on all three platforms. It uses the
+FTDI USB Serial drivers to communicate with the hardware. If you're
+running Mac OS X or Windows, a compatible version of those drivers is
+included with the software. You can also install a different from from
+the [FTDI Driver](http://www.ftdichip.com/FTDrivers.htm) page.

+TeleGPS is part of the larger [AltOS](/AltOS) suite of software, which also
+includes a dedicated [MicroPeak](/MicroPeak) application.
