SIM 908 GPS/GPRS/GSM Shield For Arduino

Hi, I purchased a SIM908 GPS shield in the link below:
make_clickable_callback(MAGIC_URL_FULL, '
', 'https://www.cooking-hacks.com/gprs-gps-quadband-module-for-arduino-sim908', '', ' class="postlink"')
I plan to order another of the shield. However, the cost of the shield is definitely a huge burden to me. I am trying to find a similar module which can perform exactly as the module in the link. Here I have found this "SIM 908 GPS/GPRS/GSM Shield For Arduino" shield and it seems to exactly fit the previous shield. My question is:
1) Are they exactly the same if the extra function, "GSM" which is available in the SIM 908 GPS/GPRS/GSM Shield For Arduino is ignored?
2) Is there any built-in function that I need to take into consideration?
3) If I use the coding that I used in the previous shield and apply it in the SIM 908 GPS/GPRS/GSM Shield For Arduino, will it work exactly the same as the result I obtained in the previous shield?
Looking forward to receiving some favorable replies. Thank you so much.

Thanks for your query.
In theory, the functional difference of the two modules is the GSM, we add the GSM function which can be used for sending message, making a phone call. Of course, you can use it or not. And as for the code you are using, maybe there are some place needed to be modified since probably some pin definition is different.
