Odd advice from a mailing list of an _open_ source/data/whatever project. If you must suggest a closed platform, then I would think symbian offers a better perspective. At least for that one there are already devices out there with built in GPS... But then you loose some of the desktop/mobile ease of migration that Qt gives you. cu bart _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dev
