Thanks Gnuite for this great app! Just installed this new version. Overall it feels pretty good for first release.
I did find some issues, one of which is serious: I did download maps on some areas using the "tap tap tap" method, and MaemoMapper did crash on me few times. That didn't cause issues until the last time now it seem like the database is corrupted. In some certain zoom levels I can no longer download new maps without MaemoMapper crashing/closing without warning. I did try to rename the database file to "old" and started a new database, after which the problem did go away.
Right now when there wasn't much map data this is not a big deal, but if I did have "the whole world" in there I'd be upset... I think there is a need to add some sort of database integrity check feature, to correct database problems (when) they happen?
Second issue, which I have an open Bugzilla bug #1752, is that when I have RTComm installed on N800 MaemoMapper never detects missing bluetooth GPS receiver... it just keeps saying "Searching for GPS receiver" indefinitely. Without RTComm it (version 1.4 at least) gives up after about 10 seconds and lets user to either retry or cancel. Not sure if this is a RTComm or MaemoMapper problem.
