How to connect gps device to java?

How can I connect my GPS receiver to my Java application? Is there any utilities to use? Or should I use another programming language?

I want to read coordinates from the device and manipulate it.

Thanks in advance.

What about to use one of the two modules listed as below:

GSM / GPS module Aldacom CN4
http://www.aldacom.com/gsm-gps/gps-tracking.html
 
GSM / GPS module Round Solutions Aarlogic C05
http://www.roundsolutions.com/aarlogic/index.htm

Both devices are pin compatible and offer:
- DC/DC power supply 6 to 40 Volt
- Inverse and high voltage protection
- SIM card holder
- A couple of I/0 channels
- RF interfaces based on U.FL connectors plus selected RD cables and antennas
- Source code with support of Track4free www.track4free.com
http://www.roundsolutions.com/uk_track4free.htm
Differences of CN4 and Aarlogic C05
- C05 supports the programming language Python on is embedded Python interpreter
- CN4 supports C and Basic based on ATMEGA 162V-8AI with JTAG interface
By wiring the GSM GPS module to your car with cigarette light cable, you get a working tracking device. By developing a small and simple adapter PCB to the dimensions of your enclosure you get your own unique GPS tracking device. If you replace the GPS module, then you get a PCB for burglar alarm system or any other telemetry application.

Both PCBs are supporting monitoring commands to get Cell ID and Time Advance (distance of the device to supporting base station).
