I have the Sony GPS-CS1, and when I plug it in to my Linux box it appears as a USB mass storage device containing a directory of NMEA format log files. So yes it absolutely does work with Linux.

The results? It works great for travel at any fair velocity, but lower speed GPS logging isn't so accurate. The Q880 runs on the Sirf Star III chipset, one which is notoriously unreliable for accurately detecting position at very low speeds (walking / cycling pace in a city, for example) because it primarily relies on the velocity to predict where you are. I took a look at the GPS points it recorded whilst I was stuck in a queue of traffic approaching a busy roundabout in Brum and it had me weaving from one side of the road to the other in a way which just isn't possible in a vehicle that can't rotate its wheels 90 degrees! It looked quite ludicrous.


if the Q1000 has a similar or identical chipset inside it (which I suspect it may) individuals or companies may want to reconsider using it for configurations where having VERY accurate positioning (without wildly inaccurate linear precision) is important to their use. However, for general use, including everyday motor vehicle travel - and fast cycling journeys, if you can pedal fast for long enough! - the Q880 is more than adequate, and I'm sure the Q1000 will work just as well.

The addition of the integrated GPS logger is a nice feature - it beats having to run a GPS Splitter on your PDA and soak up even more battery and CPU power running two apps, one to show your position and one to record the waypoints. And, knowing me, I'll probably buy it (because it has shiny LEDs on it!)]]>Jun 17th 2007 12:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/Jun 17th 2007 8:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/Jun 28th 2007 5:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/Jun 17th 2007 9:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/Jun 28th 2007 5:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/Jun 28th 2007 7:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/Aug 19th 2007 10:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/15/qstarz-bt-q1000-gps-data-logger-syncs-with-google-earth/"32 channel: Base on MTK chipset solution, can trace signals for 32 satellites simultaneously.
