"Prettiness" isn't an issue, but I think there could be a usability difference when using the maps mobile. The xastir rendering of shapefiles (I'm using TIGER data now) results in a map that's a bit hard to read for navigational purposes. I plan to use tangoGPS for a few days in the truck just to test that theory and see if i'm wasting time. In terms of functionality, reliability, resource utilization, etc, xastir+shapefiles set a very high standard. Maybe that's why I gave up on navit so quickly. :) -Jason kg4wsv _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
