Of course they all calculate it, but that doesn't mean they record it too. From 
memory, I don't think there are many that record it. I'm pretty sure the 
Suuntos, Uwatecs and Mares don't (except maybe the iconhd).

I think some of the Oceanics also store deco/ndl data. But those will require 
some extra reverse engineering work. The format of every oceanic model is 
slightly different :-(
