Well, they work pretty well and your average iPod user seems impressed enough when it draws a circle on their map. Going off on a tangent...*ducks*...a completely off-the-hook approach I thought about that works in buildings, shopping malls etc is to set the Bluetooth name of various fixed devices to their coordinates so that when you walk in range the software on your phone simply reads the Bluetooth name and gets the location. You can build pretty small devices that you could plug in that broadcast their coordinates this way. Now if you can go round the planet plugging these in you are in business ;) John. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
