I love the route feature it would just be great to be able to use it when im not connected to the Internet as hotspots in Australia really do suck...
and again, wireless Internet in Australia is hopeless unless you want to fork out alot of money to our great masters at Telstra the telco monopoly
Even if you had the source to the CGI script (which, unfortunately, I cannot release due to licensing concerns), you'd still need a connection to the internet in order to perform the routing, since you won't have the information needed for the routing (road information) on your memory card. Navicore has that information, and so will the non-free version of the GPS software coming with the N810, but that information is not cheap, so you can't carry it around with you without paying for it.
