With the supplied i-gotU software, you can now keep a record of your own journey by simply pressing the log button when you take a photo. By ensuring your digital camera and tracker clocks are synchronised, you can easily upload a travel blog of your journey and associated pictures to software such as Yahoo Flickr™ to quickly share photos and videos with your friends and family online. The software enables you to create an HTML file for your friends to see the route of your trip on software such as Google Earth™ along with pictures you have taken on the way! Alternatively, the GPS travel tracker could even be used to retrospectively track a route of your pet or vehicle, providing detailed information on its whereabouts, velocity, date and time over a given period, without you having been there! The tracker can be set to log your GPS location at preset or user defined intervals and using digitised street mapping on Google Maps™ or Google Earth™, the i-gotU software can accurately report travel activities such as where a vehicle or a pet went to, when it was there and how long it stayed there. The GPS travel tracker can also be used with compatible third party software (not supplied) such as Microsoft Streets and Maps. Please note that if you wish to use this device to track another individual or their vehicle, you must do so with their full consent and knowledge.

Customer Reviews on this Product
Michael (24/11/2009)

I got one of these a month back when it was on promotion.

It's conveniently small and so far has done a good job.

The software allows good flexibility wrt logging parameters plus it allows scheduled logging at pre-defined times on pre-defined days (not actually tried this).

Just don't forget your pc (or the cable) if you go on holiday as it doesn't have huge storage.

At the promo price, it's a 'no brainer'.

Patrick (18/09/2009)

Brilliant little product, the only problem I've had with this is I keep forgetting to bring the charge cable, but if you are careful with it and only turn it on as you need it it can last for a week with good usage.
