I also  noted roadster as a possible basis for an openmoko based navigation
package, however roadnav(http://roadnav.sourceforge.net/) seemed quite a lot
farther along. It uses wxwidgets, which we don't support yet giving us two
possible routes of attack:
1) create a openmoko target for wxwidgets (some interest has been expressed
in this endever)
2) Just use the base library(LibRoadnav) for our own application.

I'm very interested in getting involved in the development of a navigation
app, so please keep me informed about your thoughts/progress.

Hello,

several times there was the question about (free) navigation software for
OpenMoko.
I found an possible alternative to gpsdrive: roadster [1]
It seems that it is in a relatively early stage and I couldn't test it,
but it looks nice.
I also don't know what kind of maps can be used.
Currently it uses a mysql database (don't know for what), maybe this
should be replaced through sqlite for OM.
Maybe someone wants to test the software and contact the developer.

Greets,
