Thanks for the reply gnuite!

gpsd looks pretty interesting, however my understanding of the system is that it opens a port on the n770 so the gps could be queried, and I was thinking about more of a 'push' type solution (the n770 might have many different ip addresses based on different hotspots, gprs network, and the port may be blocked on the access points, etc...)

I was thinking about being able to craft a URL and have it sent on a regular basis (as long as there was internet access, or sent when internet access is established). Something like http://some.site.com/cgi-bin/upload.cgi?id=1&lat=<lat>&long=<long>. Of course I'd have to write a cgi script and find some place to host it, but that can be figured out later.
