2) Cool of you to answer questions thoroughly.

It is however still kinda buggy:
1) Sometimes the tap-hold-menu isn't showing in 3D mode, in which case I have to switch to 2D and back.

2) Routing does not work for me. 'route download error' no matter which search provider. Tried several routes in different countries, even short ones. The CLI shows some errors when using cloudmade:
Code:
D/l error 6: Couldn't resolve host name for URL: 'http://routes.cloudmade.com/e4b1777b4b5154d69dbfc4678216183a/api/0.3/52.522414,13.173012,52.523737,13.181298/car.js?units=km&lang=en'
Search URL: http://routes.cloudmade.com/e4b1777b4b5154d69dbfc4678216183a/api/0.3/47.377031,8.548404,47.375315,8.558176/car.js?units=km&lang=en
D/l error 6: Couldn't resolve host name for URL: 'http://routes.cloudmade.com/e4b1777b4b5154d69dbfc4678216183a/api/0.3/47.377031,8.548404,47.375315,8.558176/car.js?units=km&lang=en'
Also errors like these (with cloudmade urls) show up even when using google as the search provider.

3) The A and B markers look weirdly tilted backwards in 3D mode, they should rather be at 90° to map surface imo.

4) Sometimes it just crashes while panning but I was'nt abe to reproduce this consistently

5) Cannot use dead keys to input umlauts. I have ¨ bound to a key on my n900 to make ö out of ¨ and o for example. they don't appear in cloudgps.

6) Bogus search results. E.g. 'kurfuerstendamm' (a road in berlin) takes me to 'valencia street' in san francisco. Plus search results aren't context sensitive. Instead of taking a (geographically) close match it often takes me to US cities with similar names.

7) Segfault when tapping the goggles and typing something, then hitting enter, can't reproduce this now but last time it happend constantly.

Good job though!
Ad. 1. 3. 4. 5. 7. I am aware of those bugs and working on fixing them.

Ad. 2. Please try adding this line:
Code:
forceIPv4=1
to [Network] section in /opt/cloudgps/cloudgps.ini file and report back if it helped with your problem.

Ad. 6. This is intended behavior. Google Local Search is the only search provider sensitive to current location on screen. All other searches are not location aware. You should use searches like "street, city" for them to return sensible results.
