Or something like the locator in the Alien movie...

I'd really love to integrate the neo1973's GPS into the urban

With a pretty onboard interface and realtime updates, of course ..

Neat GPS

2008-04-14 Thread christooss

I don't know how much you watch XKCD but this comic was drawn few days ago.

http://xkcd.com/407/

Maybe this is feature request for TangoGPS? Or other GPS programs in 
openmoko.

Hehe, this sort of idea could possibly be used for a fun hide-and-seek
