I can imagine it could be annoying if you are stopped in a tunnel and it switches off and later logs are then lost.

Charges via USB, records on a micro-USB, has a button to take a waypoint, or another button to press to record a georeferenced audio note. Gets a fix within two seconds if the previous fix was less than two hours ago. It's only 1cm thick, so it slips nicely into a pocket. I've been eying the Columbuses. Do you know what the difference is between the V900 and the (newer) V990? One feature that I particularly like about the 990 is the ability to switch to passive mode (GPS off) when the internal accelerometer doesn't detect movement or the device loses its fix for more than a few minutes. That would mean you could just forget about switching the logger off and on. Does that really work? Also the built-in voice tagging seems nice, anyone tried that for mapping?
