Jim, take a little cruise of Maemo Mapper, a freeware Google Earth that's
connected to the WAAS/GPS bluetooth receiver for the Nokia N800 Linux
internet tablet. It put you within 3' of the Virtual Earth, Google Earth
or the great topographical maps of Terra Server....all free sources of
data for it. The maps download on-the-fly, or you can preload them into
the memory cards if you don't have a bluetooth data link to your
cellphone.

Watch the video:

Here it is in France:

The little GPS receiver is packaged with commercial Navicore nav
software, which is totally separate from the hacker's Maemo Mapper. It
drives you with audio and map routes. Here it is in action:

It's a full computer with lots of other functions besides navigation.
While navigating, with the bluetooth connected through your cellphone or
any wifi that will let you in, you can use email, webpages, talk on Skype
or Google Talk (full webcam video on Google Talk from tiny cam that pops
out) or other VoIP phone services, get weather and marine warning
information in realtime just like you can on your web browser at home.

Lots great boat things it can do....besides being able to zoom Google
Earth in on that creek over there to see where it goes before going up
it...(c;

For that price, you can do the same with preloaded images and
updatable maps already on units from Garmin and TomTom.

Hey Tom.
Tom look on your TOMTOM at state road 429 which starts in Apopka Florida and
it ends at I4 near Clermont. My Garmin shows it ending where it crosses the
Turnpike. This is a recently completed road and I'm curious as to weather
TomTom shows the complete road.
Thanks.
Happy T day.
Jim

I believe it does, but is there a name on that road that would help
me? I see 429 and it looks like it connects, but a road name would
help.
Thanks.
Happy T day.

Back at 'cha.

I believe the name of the road is Danial Webster Highway. It is a toll
road.
Thanks

It would be very tough to read the "Map" while driving.

There seems to be a fair deal of "play" on the mapping data.

Ok doke- give me a minute.

Well...

I'm going out on a limb here and say that yes - it does show the
connector. What I can't make out is if it's marked as "completed" or
as "proposed".

I know that doesn't answer your question - thats' the best I can do.

There is going to be a huge backlash on Google stock eventually - you
heard it here first.

Within five years - bet on it.
