    There's free software that I have found to be better than the software I've found bundled with these devices. It's called Geosetter, and it's quite configurable. I use it with my Amod AGL 3080 GPS logger, though it will read almost any kind of track file (and for the rest, you can always get gps babel to convert.) #phototrackrmini

    I have it on good authority that the PhotoTrackr Mini does not support RAW on a Mac - i.e. it supports Macs and RAW in Win, but not both together, at least with this iteration of the software. #phototrackrmini

    I have an EyeFi Explore card (used in my Panasonic TZ3 and MacBook Pro) and there aren't any monthly fees for geotagging or uploading to Flikr. Did there used to be?

    Also, there was already a native Mac application AND an iPhone app for owners to use as well.

    @kinda.loopy88: What are you talking about? Sony Ericsson makes the best media phones this side of Apple. I've been using one for 2 years now, would never consider dropping it for any other "dumb" phone UI or hardware for that matter.

    Cool device, but super expensive. I couldn't find the price on this one in particular, but other devices in this range go from $450 to $600.

    @weatherman:


    $400 was the stripped model and $600 was full featured no maps... I think $700 was full featured + topo and then your first born for the water maps included

    @Aaron Monroy: wowza. I think I'll just get a waterproof case for my iPhone instead.


    I'm not trying to be flippant - I think Garmin has some serious competition now that full mapping is available in a lot more phones. It's hard to justify a $400+ device when my phone has GPS anyway. Of course, most phones rely on data networks which means if you're in the backwoods you might not get any data at all. But smart phones are increasingly able to get maps loaded on them that can be accessed offline (I think the first such iPhone app just came out recently) which means there's a lot less need for Garmin's overpriced gear and maps.

    The Apple store in NYC is in front of the Statue of Liberty? For shame. This isn't even an Apple v. PC thing either. It's just a shame that your average Joe Schmo would much rather document their trip to the Apple store than to the Statue of Liberty.


    I'll just go ahead and start by flaming myself:


    "Well everybody has seen the Statue of Liberty you know. It's kinda been there a long time and isn't going anywhere. The Apple store is new and interesting and actually a pretty neat feat of engineering."


    Now I shall respond:


    So.

    It's funny that you're posting this now, because my professor is one of the people involved in this study, and he was talking about it in lecture yesterday (finals coming up, no new course material). Among the bizarre things they discovered: Americans and French always seem to take pictures of the Eiffel Tower from opposite sides, and people love taking pictures of emos in Austin, TX. And yeah, there was the Apple Store thing. Who knew?

    Well of course people like taking pictures of landmarks. Personally I think it's boring. Where's the bodegas? Where's the liquor stores? #1 Kitchen? The flaming trash can on blahblahblah Street?

    Is that really a titanium frame or just titanium colored frame? I hate it when marketing specialists decide to pull that trick.

    @Software_Goddess: Sony does use titanium for a few of their more upscale gadgets, so it wouldn't be unheard of. For example:

    The problem I have with these camera that are claimed to be high def is that the quality sucks as soon as the lighting condition is non-optimal. Even a cloudy day will shows the difference.


    Sub-Compact video cameras are nifty but doesn't work too well.

    @weezeee: I have a high-def subcompact and it works better than any camcorder I have ever had or could ever have due the simple fact that it gets used. If it can't fit in my jacket pocket, all it'll record is an occasional birthday... if I rembember to charge the battery.

    Hmm.. I'll soon need to replace my dying Xacti HD700. Question is, do I wait and get this or the Xacti HD1010? I guess the HD1010 as it's been out for some time and is much cheaper at this point.

    @Evodico: sub-compacts simply do not work as good as you think, when compared to a regular camcorder.


    I had an earlier generation of Sanyo Xacti HD video cam (got dumped in the water by my daugther, but that's another story for another day) and they are not even close to my Canon VIXIA HF-11. If you want to skim, do yourself a favor and get the Canon HF-10 -- it will cost you about the same

    @weezeee: For camcorders, it seems like Canon, with its Vixiae, has become the new Sony.
