The guys in the vimeo link I posted used GPS tracking. I don't know exactly
how, but it seems that the package transmits GPS coordinates somehow and
they used it to track where the package fell.

@murlwe,
my plan is not to release the balloon. I want it on low altitudes as
far as my string and helium can support.

I love this type of projects!
The problem I can imagine with having it on a string is:
- the string gets quite heavy when it's a few hundred meters up in the
air, not to mention 1 few km.
- if the string snaps, what then?
- the string may be visible on the photos
- all the overhead cables!
I guess this is a good start:

Ideally I'd like a bit more RAM and an interface to some flash memory,
but at least it's *much* more powerful than a C64!
