Thanks for the tip, but I've always been a fan of the tiles. Also, after replacing the 32x32 tilemap with the 16x16 one (can't stand the 32x32 tiles, so bulky and cumbersome) and zooming out to the correct resolution (it starts out zoomed in 2x so it looks like they're still 32x32 tiles at first) you get a pretty good portion of the level on your screen and it's very stylus friendly.

Telnet is not so stylus friendly which is a dealbreaker with the cramped and limited keyboard, plus until I get an n900 I only get internet at home. It's so much fun to lead your little monk around with your stylus. *tap tap tap tap*
