 Actually I have two i-Blue 747 GPS data loggers. The older one is a **Model ID 001B**, which has already manifested the problem: today is **2019-10-10**, but GPX points logged have a timestamp of **2000-02-24**. If you do the math, you can find that there is a **difference of exactly 1024 weeks**. This means that the device internally stores timestamps using a **week counter of only 10 bits**. So exactly 1024 weeks after its //EPOCH// (the begin of the time it can handle), the timestamps rolls-back of that amount of time.
-The other logger of mine is a **Model ID 001D**, which instead is still recording corrected timestamps today. I suspect that the week counter is nevertheless 10 bits, and just the hard-coded EPOCH is more recent. So the bug is **just to come in the near future**.
