how about orienting it less on not-open sourced things like google map, and more on it's open source counterparts, like OpenStreetMap?
can you give some examples ?
what do you want to see in subsequent editions?

Nice. For some reason, the GPS location was way off for a time, though still in California where I am. It's within a few hundred yards now. I've only been using it for about half an hour.

Also, the map contains abbreviations like rd for road and esspeak speaks our "rd" Simply turn left in xxx or take 2nd turning at roundabout would be great.
2. The positioning is quite inaccurate. Not sure if this is the code, gps or map but I am often up to 50 metres away from the indicated point.
3. When using the navigation in portrait mode, the text box at the bottom (avg speed, mins to go etc.) doesn,t fit the wcreen.
4. I couldn't get the auto recalculate route to work. i intentionaly went a different route but the highlighted track never altered. Edit: now found the options, I will try again and report back.
5. Not sure how offline mode works
Things I'd love to see;
1. The option to always have the direction of travel upwards so left and right turns are simple to comprehend.
2. Offline maps and routing
3. Optional uise of recorded voice rather than espeak
4. Bigger/simpler UI buttons and info bar at bottom (look at tomtom, sygic etc)
Thats all for now! These comments are not meant to be criticisms. your app is excellent and your speed of development is very very impressive, I am just trying to make the best better!

On my n900 gps accuracy is ok,drop street name is ready,UI buttons is ok for me

Just been out on a trip with the latet version and have some observations.
Please could you add some extra (shorter) recalculate distances (30m, 50m etc)
I turned off the spoken street names and sometimes got the speech 'continue onto' no street name correctly, can this be changed to just 'continue'
At one stage the voice said in 97m turn left slash div colon colon font... then a second voice came in at the same time!
Accuracy (using google maps) is still quite a bit out. the junction comes up well before the distance. When almost next to the junction, it tells me to turn left in 70 metres but I am only about 15 metres away.
Is there any way to use one of the POIs as the destination address?
I would really love my travel to be facing up when navigating so left and right turns are relative to me.
And lastly, is the source available so I can assist in development?

Hi
I tried the app, but all I get is the big "global" map without any buttons. I tried to reinstall, but no luck.
When I tried to start from xterminal I got this.

icon visibility can be impaired depending on the map type. they perhaps need a background or size increase (and if the latter then a disapear after x secs tap to restore).
GPX record: it seems that the file is not recorded if the screen has blanked. I got straight line "joins" between the last pre-blank position and the first one after re-enabling. Defeats the purpose of logging.
thanks for your efforts. Update rate is scary.....

Ok
Really what can I do to move from extra-devel repository to level up?
