Would it be possible to make it work with USB to TTL?

I have the Adafruit Ultimate GPS and FTDI Serial TTL-232 USB Cable.
If I use 'cgps -s' on the Raspberry Pi I can see the data.

Very likely that it works, since the MTK3339 should use the same NMEA0183 protocol and the usb adapter shouldn't alter the output of the device.

If they've implemented at least the $GPRMC,$GPGGA and $GPGSV verbs the library should have all the data it needs.
The protocol is a bit redundant so you could retrieve the data you need from one or more of the other verbs even if they didn't implement the exact same set of commands.
Can you let me know if this works so that I can update the readme accordingly?
