Was on a A330, it says you may use GPS devices when seatbelt sign isn't on. PDA's like blackberry however not.. (not sure who makes up these rules, - if it has a flight mode and FCC approved, it's damned sure it stays in flight mode? :P)

Attitude 0.0.6 is now on its way to diablo & fremantle extras-devel. Changes:
  • Name (thanks to EIPI)
  • Python dependencies are more explicit, rather than relying on the -runtime
  • Slightly tweaked fly-through algorithm on non-accelerometer devices

lardman's wiimote provider hasn't made it into this release.

If nothing's broken, I'll try promoting it to extras-testing. (There's no product for it in bugs.maemo.org, but I'm not sure it needs one)

0.0.7 is on its way to extras; two changes:
  1. Uses a three-time average to try and combat noise.
  2. mud's been patched to not introduce superfluous build dependencies (such as gnupg).

At some point, I'll introduce a calibration menu and - if the accelerometers are accurate enough - a switchable set of graphics.

My brother is begging for something to use when doing autocross.

This means something that records GPS position and G-Force, and can then display those figures in a meaningful way to show the racer how he handled the track.
