Strongly considering getting an HTC Magic (G2, ish) when they come out in the UK, partly because I want to get tinkering with Vespucci. How well does Android shape up for more traditional GPX tracklogging and photo-mapping, OOI?

Being able to edit data directly when on the move is really neat. I enjoy fiddling with Osm2go way too much. Now we just need editors for iPhones and WinCE kit so the orange-sunglasses and pointy-hair crowds can get mapping too ^^

I'm frequently taking pictures without stopping on my bike. I can do this easily with Canon Digital ELPH series cameras but with screen lock, small shutter button and much lower shutter speed I haven't tried very hard with the G1. Garmin eTrex works great for GPX because the batteries last >20h and pack two more AAs for a second 20h. Also I don't need a network to see the OSM data (with maplint errors highlighted).
