I know I'm going to get asked about the status of Maemo Mapper v2.0, so to pre-empt the impatient ones, I added a comment in the Maemo Mapper v2.0 thread. Read it if you're interested in the status of Maemo Mapper v2.0.

Seems to be working nicely for Calgary, Canada. I did a few tests using maps.google.ca.
Cheers,

It seems that the results page is in iso-8859-1, but it doesn't say so in the headers so I had to manually switch firefox to iso-8859-1 (from utf-8) to correctly see accented characters. Don't know if this is going to be a problem with maemo-mapper or not.

Hi. I was trying to test your POI search for Moscow, Russia (web maps.google.ru does exist) but I fail to find any pio using your system. Should it work or its just for europe and america ?

At http://maps.google.ru/ there are only two options, "Адреса" and "Маршруты проезда". So POI Search won't work for the .ru top-level domain.

I'd appreciate it if some of you could test the service and make sure that it works for you (in your locality). I've tested some American and European searches, but I can't test everything. The "Top Level Domain" variable works the same way - you should get French results if you use a top level domain of "fr".
Also, feedback is welcome. The data comes from Google Maps, and I'm still looking for a way to return more than ten results at a time, so if you know the answer, please let me know.
