I had a short look at your code and I think the main reason why
your NMEA messages are ignored is that every message must
be terminated by <CR><LF> and not only by <LF> (as done in
your script). Change the terminating "\n" to "\r\n" and try again!
Furthermore, if some values are not available, you should not
set the value to 0.0 but use a null field (a field with no characters
between the delimiters) instead!
Examples are the HDOP value in your GPGGA sentence
or the speed in knots in the GPVTG sentence!
I've written a similar Python script which outputs some NMEA
sentences on a pseudo-terminal, which does already work with
two different programs inside Palm OS Emulator on my N900!
(see the attached file)
Thanks for the info, I'm no longer an N900 owner
And iv'e never been happier, not to say that's it's 100% N900 and Maemo 5's fault, but it's more like I don't get what I need out of the N900, and I do from android with Galaxy S.
On-Topic, i no longer need to share GPS since my galaxy s has gps hardware + waze version to run on.
Cheers anyway, and nice observation about the CRLF,
as an HTTP pro (myself) i'm ashamed I didn't think about it.
But as HTTP is much more known and well formed then NMEA, i can see how I missed it

I am badly in need of this kind of application as well. make n900 an external bluetooth gps receiver so I can use the navigation software of my old pocket pc which doesn't have gps.
if someone can tell me if there's a way to do it on our n900. i'll appreciate it much!

You should try it, if it works, great, if it doesn't, you need to fix it
