Sony GPS-CS1 and Travels
Finally got my hands on the Sony GPS-CS1 that was recently announced. Had travelled to Singapore Expo for Comex during the Alpha launch and couldn’t get it.. Thank goodness Hai Chew Electronics in good ole Sim Lim Square was selling it. The salesman was pretty helpful in explaining how it worked etc (Forgot to ask his name, but definitely good service!).
Tried out the GPS unit yesterday and couldn’t wait to see the track log on Google Earth! After wrestling with what the heck format are they using, (finally found out it’s NMEA-0183 after googling for “@Sonygps/ver1.0/wgs-84″ and being led to a japanese site), I managed to get it converted into Google KML using GPSBabel. Pretty fun to see the waypoints being mapped out. Can’t wait to use it on my travels!
