I have several GPS engines and all the ones I have put out a 10 kHz signal 
and a 1 pps pulse.  It's become very popular among some areas of the 
amateur radio community to use the 1 pps pulse to phase-lock or 
frequency-lock a 10 MHz source so it is extremely accurate. (10E-9 or so)

But you could use the 1 pps pulses to make a very accurate egg timer!
