We are happy to announce that from today on shipping of our pictoGEO data logger bundle starts. The first packages are already on their way.
The bundle is now in stock and can be ordered in our online shop. Delivery time varies depending on your location between 2 - 5 week days. Included in the package is the data logger hardware with charger, a lanyard and a CD with the first final version of pictomio 1.2 that also can be downloaded here.

Pictomio 1.2 now offers extensive geotagging features that allow you to easily tag your pictures with position information and view/manage your trips. For the map display you can choose between the two most important map providers Google Maps and Microsoft Virtual Earth (what ever you like more or find less evil :).

Also new is the support for several online photo sharing services like Facebook and Flickr.

The long awaited shop is now available!
If you're living in the European Union you can pre-order our special hardware and software bundle now. It includes the data logger plus the pictoGEO add-on for pictomio. Shipping of the hardware will begin during the second half of October, but you will receive the key to the software right after you have completed the purchase.

We are also interested to cooperate with resellers who want to sell our products. Please contact us at contact@pictomio.com to get more information.

EU customers will also be able to donate to our project in a special form: You can buy the pictomio polo shirt and support us with a small donation (at the same time you'll look really cool in it).

For now, customers in the rest of the world will only be able to buy the software in the shop - of course the key for pictoGEO will be sent to you immediately, too.

So click here and start shopping right away!

Due to large demand, we have decided to expand the beta test and offer more devices.
If you send us an e-mail till October 15th your chances to become a beta tester are very good.

We are currently looking for 20 European beta testers who want to assist us in testing our pictoGEO GPS logger under real-life conditions. For this purpose we are giving away 20 GPS loggers and pictoGEO add-on licenses for the special one-time beta-tester price of € 50. Since this price is highly subsidized (the normal price will be € 119, see below) this offer is limited to 20 people and each person can only apply for a single device! If you want to participate please hurry up and contact us via e-mail at contact@pictomio.com.
