I think this is a common misconception. Google Maps Mobile runs on Java(J2ME), so as long as the phone can support that, it should be able to run. http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=39891&topic=9120 But again, as was mentioned earlier, it does not cache tiles, and requires GPRS connection for every use. I have Gmaps Mobile on my current phone, and it is a decent application if you have an unlimited data plan. Also AFAIK, it does not integrate with GPS at all. I'm not sure though because my phone does not have GPS. - Hans Loeblich _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
