I recently upgraded to the N9 version and it is very nice, thanks for your continued work!

Something that seems to be missing from it however is offline maps and local caching of tiles. Are there plans to introduce these? The caching qml does seems to be very ineffective and the constant map tile loading is eating a lot of battery not to mention losing the maps when in a location with no cell signal.

Also a minor nag I have is that the currently targeted geocache marker covers quite a lot of the map. I have some high res satelite images in my tileserver but sometimes the large marker with color fill etc. tends to make it hard to see the exact spot where it is pointing (like to a corner of a building). In the N900 version all the markers disappeared when dragging the map, I guess this wasn't an intentional feature but it made it easy to "peek" behind all the markers
