If you are aware of any such python example and of it's name, just tell me.

Open image file (map tile)
get pin in the center and move map tile image
as GPS updates
nothing more , just for fun
libchamplain has python bindings, so unless you have specific reasons for doing all the grunt work yourself I suggest checking it out first.

On 770 it might be a tad slow to start but in general should run fine, map panning (if implemented in pure python) might also be sluggish.

But I don't consider it unsuitable.
