Re: dash7 pictures

I've got a few questions, Tor:
-- what's the sample frequency?
-- how long can recording last?
-- what's the connection to the PC? Serial?
-- can I get a real-time output of the sensor readings, e.g. over the 
serial link?
-- can the laptimer be triggered by a button (IR beacons being banned at 
most trackdays)?

I too am interested in buying one of your gadgets (and I'm an all-year 
Sevener so I'd make a good beta tester! And I've got a decent digital 
camera...) I have considered building something like this, but you're 
already a lot further than I probably ever would get.

I also have a request / hint: how about storing the files in some 
text-based format (doesn't have to be XML, although that would be 
trendy)? This would allow the hackers amongst us to make up for any 
features that you might miss out (although there doesn't seem to be much 
scope for that, since dash7 does absolutely everything as standard).

I'll just reiterate, Tor, this looks absolutely superb!
