I just finished my short evening jogging with Sports Tracker software installed on my S60 series phone. It just came into my mind that the internet tablet, N8X0 series would sooo be *the* platform for sports Tracker, too... any information whether there are such projects going on?

Re: Sports Tracker?
 

such a thing would be nice to see on our tablets.

You can try gpstracer :

It records waypoints and generate a KML file for Google maps :

Documentation, actually only in french :

I'm writing a php script to display the uploaded kml files in a rss feed :

I know there are somes bugs : this is my first application with C programming language.

This is interesting. I would prefer a 'record trip' feature in maemo mapper, but this is nice to share trip info with others.

Sounds great even though I thought from the title that this would be a desktop ticker for sports scores.

Something like this would make me take my N810 everywhere--a good thing and a bad thing.

Re: Sports Tracker?
 

The reason why Sports Tracker was never planned for the iT was because most users are unlikely to tote the iT around on a run/cycle due to its weight and bulk, whereas a mobile phone is usually carried for emergency purposes.

But yes, it would be possible, much in the same way that the iT would make an excellent datalogging tool for motorsport performance analytics (see http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...d.php?p=142706)

Again, this is where Nokia acts consistently with their positioning of the iT being a companion device to a mobile phone :)

Hey TahitiBob, This is what I have been looking for. Unfortunately it won't install because it needs libglade. I have been searching for an hour but it appears there is no libglade available for OS2008. Has anyone been able to install this an try it out?
cheers

try to switch the applications manager to red pill mode.
It should appear...

Next version will provide a RSS feed like this :

I'll try that to see how it works. The point is, really, to both log the route and at the same time show real time info, such as speed, pace and position. Current screen sizes in S60 phones (mine is Nokia 6120 Classic) are pretty small for showing all that at once, while the big screen of an internet tablet might be optimal. :cool:
