Yeah, I checked some cases as well on the Net; I am a bit concerned about the Freerunner dropping out of this thing ... have to give it a go. > > > - The power capacity was just enough to bring me from A to B; another > (longer) trip might result in troubles / me getting lost :( > > If I was touring I would consider taking solar power.

Well; I tried suspend at the beginning; but that's not really fun - the track gets dropped in tangoGPS and you have to re-orientate yourself; I think - when driving using GPS - I want this map in front of me all the time ;) Thx Michael _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
