I know the 120 seconds comes from the location library, but still.
Hi zimon, what range of intervals do you have in mind ?

Yes, this kind of feature (i.e.: have filtering control on position and/or heading for example) has been requested and is already in my TODO list

Program should have flexible (complex) options how to behave in different situations. Like do we make GPS connection if there is not one already, or are we satisfied with the previous recorded GPS-location with the network-cell-code with the accuracy.
The Maemo's 'location' subsystem is already doing this apparently (i.e.: choosing the best positioning scheme).
But for now, GPS Recorder only asks for position from a GPS source exclusively so I will add an option for this.
