[OSM-talk-be] looking for a sturdy, simple data logger

[Dennis Bollyn]

I already gave my recommendation in a previous email, so I won't repeat it.

I'd have to agree on a rechargeable battery. The batteries always run 
out when you don't have a spare. With a li-ion, you simply recharge when 
you're done and it'll always be ready.

Waypoints are nice to have, but not absolutely required for photo mapping.

Driverless devices are also quite rare. You're looking at one that 
emulates a mass storage device, or one with memory cards. There are 
plenty of devices with multi-OS driver support that would cost less. 
Lower cost = more units.

Regards,

Gyrbo
