-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 At the OSM Oxford Christmas meet-up, I showed a couple of people WhereAmI, an OSM map browsing application for Symbian based mobile phones. They thought it was very interesting, and were surprised it hadn't been talked about more here.
http://www.symbianos.org/projects/47 It works on Series 60 (second and third edition), Series 80, and UIQ phones, including the N95 with it's built in GPS. It can connect to an external bluetooth GPS, or you can just browse the map. It uses a binary protocol to download a highly compressed but live version of the map, and also has a feature that lets you only download what has changed since the last time you downloaded, so you can keep up to date without using all your bandwidth allowance. There's quite a few unimplemented features, but it's looking like a really promising effort.
