Cheers Gene.
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!

Hi James,
My brother has a similar program for his iPAQ which has a nice sounding lady tell him when to turn but it won't calculate performance. Most GPS receivers update once a second or so which isn't fast enough for calculating 0-60 times... or maybe that's good enough for Spitfires...
The one you saw was probably the DynoStar GPS. It updates positional
information 20 times a second so it can get accurate data for track
performance: http://www.roadtune.co.uk/dynostar.shtml
Check your GPS specs. Newer models might refresh faster. You could try finding or writing (aren't you a software dude?) a program that will SPAM the GPS data out into a CSV file and import it into a spreadsheet. If that worked, it would be pretty simple to calculate and display the data.
