there's no point...
Get the Nikon cable and plug your regular GPS in...

I'm going to get one for My Garmin foretrex (GPS-serial-D200)
It then puts Lon/lat/alt in EXIF

As long as your GPS can do NMEA it will work (I assume)

There is a point if you don’t have the Garmin et al, plus the MC-35 is a lot more convenient with this specifically made GPS as it is built-in and shorter.

Just sold my MC-35 on Ebay for $99, offered it to the forum for $75 - average price $160 out of HK.

Or see the upcoming issue of CHIMP for another alternative that is less of a pain when you're taking the pics (ie: no attached device/cables, etc) but a little fiddly later ;) - it's also a hell of a lot cheaper than either of the above options :) :) :)
