Hi all,
Regarding the IPAQ 312 and anti glare screens, the 312 screen is built with
anti glare.
Unfortunately, it is not a transreflective screen so is poor in sunlight, mine
was virtually unreadable on a bright summer day.
It is so poor I have stopped using it and gone back to IPAQ's.
Greg W has recently got one, what do you reckon Greg?
XCSoar should log by default though I seem to recall some issues with the
latest version with logging.
Auto logging is switced on/off on page 7-polars (go figure) of system setup.
A copuple of hints, the log file is created on shutdown so if you reset the PDA
without shutting down you lose the log.
Logging commences on takeoff, when speed exceeds a certain value.
Regards
DAve l
