 This is great news. Are there any plan for Android version?

 Android is definitely a possibility for 2010.  We want to reach as
 many existing and potentially new OpenStreetMappers as possible with
 the Mapzen mobile tools, so platform choices will be based on that.


I almost bought IPhone because of this app, but more and more
reviewers say that Motorola Droid (Android 2.0) beats IPhone...

I would also like to see MapZen on Android, please consider it as soon
as possible.

Cheers!

There are some potential alternatives for various other platforms that 
might help until MapZen gets ported to each of them, which I hope it will

For android there seems to be Vespucci, for Nokia internet tablets there 
is Osm2Go and owners of java phones can use GpsMid that also has a POI 
collector included.

As far as I can tell, non of these alternatives are soley dedicated POI 
collectors and thus might not be as user friendly as MapZen, but for the 
enthusiast mapper they can potentially offer more.

For a lack of an android phone or a internet tablet, I have not tried 
out either Vespucci or Osm2Go myself, so I can't say for sure if they 
work and fit the bill.

You can actually run osm2go on any Linux box. It's just a GTK
application with a minimal interface.

 If you're interested in using Translatewiki for Mapzen or the Mapzen
 POI collector let me know. We already moved Potlatch and the OSM web
 to it with great results. To use translatewiki.net would require that
 Mapzen and Mapzen POI are open source but as far as I can tell only
 the former is at the moment, but alternatively you could set up your
 own translation wiki, but that would mean not having access to the
 large translation community at Translatewiki.net.

 Hi Guys,

 Mapzen POI Collector was released into the App Store this morning.
 Mapzen POI Collector is a free iPhone app that makes it really easy to
 collect POIs for OpenStreetMap.  Users locate themselves using the
 iPhone's built in GPS, position a pin at the location of the POI they
 want to add and then choose from a range of pre-selected categories.
 No need to remember those obscure tags any more.

 Why is it not available for the iPod Touch? The builtin
 geolocalization just helps you in finding the correct street but still
 I would love to have a decent GUI for collectin POIs on my iPod.
 You would have to add a user message hinting at the inaccuracy, but still.

Main reason is because Mapzen POI Collector needs a network connection
to upload the POIs to OSM.  There is no support for offline / caching.
 I guess if you had a wifi network you could upload the POIs that way,
but there aren't many places with ubiquitous WiFi.

If you email me at n...@cloudmade.com I'll see if we can get a build
made for iPod touch and you can test it out.






 Regards,
 Claudius
