No idea if it was Dynostar but was very similar... except I don't think
that it didnt have the accelerometer in it...
I don't really need an accelerometer... just the GPS stuff. Maybe I _do_
need to make one :)
I am a bit of a software dude - but not that much... I have looked in to
Delphi (the only windows programming app I know) and there are a few GPS
components - so making a CSV file would be easy enough. Guess I just
need a program to plot coords in to a graphic... that should be simple
enough... in 3D... now that would be clever!
