Re Posttude addresses, I have known of this attempt several years ago. Too 
complicated to convert these into Lon/Lat which any phone with a GPS can 
report, without having to have an Internet connection. 

A simple algorithm reading one's current Lon/Lat position can guide you 
(straight line) to any given other Lon/Lat address, without having to access 
the Internet.
