I had a look on it. They should call it bigbrother4all. Under their friendly base line and image, it seems to me the deal will be: free navigating system for everyone to get a critical mass and become a standard. In a second time, offer a paying tracking to the companies to watch their employees. Thank's; not for me. I prefer to pay... nav4all. I had a look on it. They should call it bigbrother4all.

This works in a kindof similar way. Three things would make j2memap a killer application: (a) caching map tiles that have already been downloaded (on supported phones) or allowing the user to download them in advance using their PC. (b) adding a j2me version of something like miniGPS or navizon. (c) sime kind of vector display of maps, which would massively cut GPRS costs. It is worth having a look at nav4all(.com).

It's sad because I could use it with a LBS feature my carrier has. I’m unable to use this with my samsung SPH-A920. It’s sad because I could use it with a LBS feature my carrier has.

A few improvment are planned on the very short term: - improve the display on the map, there are a few overlapping elements - add a wat to go automatically to next point of interest (so next turn) when reached one - a few minor tweaks For rotation, it's something that I plan to do, but it will require more time....

Thank you, Thomas. Could it be a nice improving with the rotation of the map so to see my heading always pointing to the top of the screen?
