 Hello community,
 
 tangoGPS, a fast and lightweight GPS and map application using
 openstreetmap is out in version 0.7.

Hi Markus.
Waiting for the Moko, I tried to install TangoGPS, but I ran into
trouble, see http://www.tangogps.org/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=10#p10 for
details and suggestions.
All the best, and many thanks.

I'll have a look into supporting garmin or other maps, but is for now
not on the top of my todo list - unless there is plenty more request for
this. And hey, don't *wait* for OSM to grow, but *do help* it grow ;-)

Well, yes... I'll be happy to help OSM too, but since GPS devices are 
born to help people to move, I think that it's important to have an 
useful application learning from it instead of making it to learn! :P

+1 for libgarmin. I think OSM is a great idea and a great project, but
I don't think I can map my entire country myself and there is very few
mappings of where I live (some of it was done by me).

Don't be too pessimistic: in Italy we're having great results,
essentially in the last year (and OSM is proving a powervul catalyser
for freeing public data).
