A few weeks ago I was trying to find some out of town guests who had become lost. The guests could only read street signs to me and I had to look up their location as best I could, they were borrowing a N900 with a prepaid voice and SMS SIM.
Are there any location sharing apps for the N900 comparable to tangoGPS on the openmoko or more modern apps for other OSs? Unfortunately tangoGPS and the associated location servers appear to be gone from the internet.
Ideally the app would either report location when active to a server like tangoGPS did or even better if it could also format the GPS coordinates into a SMS that could be used in a mapping app.
I see this on other phones and am surprised how little info Nokia includes, just your city, when you set geolocation in your IM status.
(edit)
Comments about location2sms have me excited, is there a built .deb for N900?
