Also, it helps to publish trips to www.a-trip.com. That really makes it easy to collect and manage all the trip files.

Not directly in i-gotU Desktop from what I can see. However if you export the data as a GPX file (right click > Export GPS after selecting the track in the top left panel) you can upload it to http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/ then download the file produced and load it in Excel to see the total distance, and work out an average for the speed. >Are you able to use it to get total distance travelled and average speed?

Sorry if I have misunderstood. Nick, do you reckon this could be used to produce HTML for a web site, or is the screen shot you have posted of the actual software that comes with the unit.

The ability to act as a standard serial GPS is a plus, but the fact it does not publish location data to Flickr, and the difficulty in actually telling if it is turned on or off are areas it could be improved.

I bought the TR101 from Maplin trying to keep track of an elderly relative who wanders off and gets lost. It works like a dream, I send it a blank text message, it sends me lat-long via SMS after checking its GPS. Plug the numbers into Google maps and its person found! I'm tempted by this i-gotU even though I can't find a good reason to buy one, maybe its a male-gadget thing. Now thats what I call a review!
