Don't know. I've been too busy with v2.0 to look at Chinook, but it should be reasonably easy to support it. Don't know about the built-in GPS, either, but if it's available via a file system device (similar to how RFCOMM works), then Maemo Mapper should already support it. We'll see. Chinook is not my priority at the moment.

I guess you can. Only thing is you have to decide how to go to destination. try tap on the screen and do not life the stylus till it shows a popup menu. from the menu use the options some thing like 'add to way point' and 'add to ...' i do not remember the exact names, right now i do not have my n770 with me. with those options you can draw a route which can be used offline.

Thanks Gnuite, for the consistent support through this thread. I come back to read it just to check on progress and need to let you know how eagerly I am looking forward to it. I have deliberately resisted getting a BT receiver and even playing with MM because I know 2.0 is just going to rock. And, selfishly, I'd love to see it work on the 08 OS, as I will definitely be installing that asap! Keep up the good work!

I have to say this is still the best application on my n800. I use it everytime I go on a roadtrip. Great support gnuite, I cant wait for ver 2.0. One favor I have is if you could list some of the main features that have been added and will probably be releaed on ver 2.0 . This will help reducing repitition of same suggestions. Thanks.

Let me see if I can remember them all off-hand:

* Maps stored in single-file databases
* View rotation (including auto-rotate to match heading)
* Drag-to-pan support
* GPSD support
* Click-on-waypoint to see description
* Support for repositories with no map cache at all
* On-screen compass
* Better memory utilization
* View refresh indicator (hourglass feedback)
* More robust bluetooth receiver handling (no more crashing when out of range)
* Code reorganization (easier to read - no more singular 15,000-line file).
* POI import from GPX file
* POI download from internet
* POI browser (maybe)
* POI save to GPX file (maybe)

I think that's most of the big, noticeable changes. There are a bunch of other, smaller, less-noticeable changes, e.g. added options and UI tweaks.

2.0 features all sound very cool. I for one would love to keep up to date with how things are going, though I'm sure you'd like to avoid creating expectations. Still, if you kept a blog of progress we'd all have somewhere to check.

[Edit, removed queries about OS2008 because it was already discussed]

Hello!

Can somebody help me?

I'd like to know if it is possible to open maemo-mapper (on my N800) at a specific position? (and add a POI, there, would be nice). From the command line (% maemo-mapper --open something) or from a link in a web page?

Also, is there a way to force the full screen when mapper starts?

Thanks ^^

Could you give me more details about what exactly is something in your command like, i mean what is the syntax, any example will be nice.

Maemo mapper can go full screen by using menu or hardware keys.

Sorry, i was not clear enough. I gave that bogus command line just to make my point

Actually I look for a way to click on a link on a local web page, that opens mapper at the selected position (and if full screen, if possible).
