Hi all, Just a small question about the location framework, I understand that the framework will use different backends, in the same sort of way that GeoClue does (see [1]), are we allowed to know what backends will be available?
GPS is in there, what about things like WiFi access point locations (i.e. the same thing that the iPhone does) and cell tower id numbers? I'm just wondering how continual the reporting of the location information will be, and therefore what sorts of cool apps would be possible. I'd also be interested to know the power hit that using things like the GPS and communicating data will have on overall battery life. Not much point having a cool context/location aware app that tracks your movements if it halves your battery life, etc. Cheers, Simon [1] http://wiki.maemo.org/Task:Maemo_roadmap/Fremantle#Location_framework _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
