 Hello, I'm going to release new version of MC Navi and I want to make maps
 available for direct download. So I want to ask, what country do you need?

Mike, can you give a brief rundown on why MC Navi instead of navit or tangogps?

What benefit comes from this new project?  Why should a user consider switching?

Thanks!

 Did you tried paroli? It has a blackwhite design for a reason.;)
 I can read the screen without problem in direct sunlight too.
 

Laszlo,

I can't even see the screen in direct sunlight, I just see a reflection of the
sky.  I have to hold the phone upside down to be able to read it and then it is
washed out.  Black and white mode __would__ make that easier.

I should try the polarized sunglass idea and see if that helps.

Does anyone have a solution for this?  I can't see the screen on my
freerunner when I am in sunshine.  It is completely washed out.

Does anyone have an anti-glare coating they've used on their freerunner
successfully?

BTW:  Next gen freerunner should use OLPC style screen.  Low power digital ink
screen would be perfect for daytime phone use.

Anti-glare coating

2009-07-02 Thread Cry
Can anyone suggest a good anti-glare coating?  I can't use my freerunner in the
daylight because I can't see the screen.

Also, is their a service in the US that can replace a scratched screen or a
procedure such as fingernail polish to repair a surface scratch?

Thanks!
