It is already there - my problem is, that Google Earth cannot show 
this property of the trackpoint to the user. Google Earth uses it 
only for its display of the time line, but I couldn't find an easy 
way to get the time stamp of a single point without guessing around 
the time line. Just clicking the trackpoint and see the time stamp 
would be much easier.

But maybe I am just blind and Google Earth (newest version: 4.0.2737) 
can show this information? I really tried hard, but may be I missed 
something - tell me, if I am wrong.

I have the points turned on, I can right-click on one, select 
properties, but I only get Lat/Lon / Description / Color / Look At / 
Altutide - is there a way to get the timestamp?  - I would be fully satisfied.
