I am writing an application that will have to plot multiple points on
a MapView. I was able to plot them using the example mentioned in the
Android Developers guide. But I have a few more questions that I
cannot find answers to, so checking to see if any of you have tried
this and provide some solutions.

1. If I want to name my points just like how Google does on their Maps
(like name my locations A, B, C etc....) do I have to have separate
drawables for each one of them? or can I modify one drawable by
writing the text onto them as my count of locations increases?

2. I would like to navigate between each location plotted on the
MapView using a similar method that Google has on their mobile version
of maps when we search for some place like pizza, how do we do it?
This is a small bar at the bottom of the map view beside the zoom
controls that has left and right arrows.

3. Can a map view have multiple ItemizedOverlays? If so is there a
limit on how many of them I could have at any instance? Would it cause
any memory issues?

4. Is there a way to change the size of the icons used for displaying
the locations as the zoom level changes? May be something like
splitting the zoom levels into 3 ranges and use 3 icons for each zoom
level range? If so which intents am I listening to and which method
should I override?

Thanks in advance!
