Hi, I am not sure of the cost of the Telit modules, however I have done successful designs previously using seperate modules. GPS - JP13 (Very good GPS Module!)
GSM - Telit.

Of course, you would need a seperate microcontroller to interface to these.

If you are looking for help in designing, please check my website... www.circatek.co.uk

Ther are also modules available that have a Python script processor built in. This allows you to build system without a microcontroller. see here:

I did it with wavecom modem and fastrax GPS modem. got the result. But now you get wavecom combined GSM and GPS. try it at wavecom.com
