(I think you did not cc the list on this, so I'm doing so now)

I believe they are - I have an Etrex Vista I can try to make sure that 
it does, but I'm fairly certain there are a handful of tools the grab 
the data in many different formats (NMEA certainly) and can dump them to 
text files, or whatever.

Anyone have any good experience with these tools?
