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.

Error in Installer Versions from Friday/Saturday
Monday, July 28, 2008 11:55:00 AM UTC
 

We experienced errors when starting the new Pictomio alpha version on some systems due to problems with the VS runtime modules, so we updated our installer to fix the problem.

If you get an error (or even a crash) when trying to run Pictomio alpha 1.1, please download and start the installer again (it has the same file name as before). If you still experience errors when trying to start Pictomio alpha version after that procedure, please let us know here or in the forum.

Thank you
