garmin guards their maps jealously so i am not surprised if the apis are hard to comeby or if there are legal issues.
as for google maps, i have not looked at the terms of use but i am sure they would do the same. the other tile based app that i use is mappero but development seems to have slowed or stopped. that app uses a variety of tile based map sources.
anyway, keep up the good work!

This format is mainly used by the popular J2ME tile map application called TrekBuddy...

Would it not be possible to read the cached (or pre-installed) map data found in the 'Cities' folder created by Ovi Maps? Nokia has provided those maps free for N900 users...
I don't know anything about this stuff, so don't flame me if that's a completely stupid suggestion.. just throwing ideas out there..

You should change the Section defined in the debian control file for the package. You need it under one of the user sections (probably user/navigation) in order for it to show in App Manager.

Running it from the command-line, I get a few errors. On launch, it reports:
And on exit I get:
There's also a glibc error reported on exit:
I do like the app though - very smooth.
loadTexture /opt/cloudgps/res/bar-bg-mask.png failed
SDL_image: Not a TIFF or MDI file, bad magic number 20617 (0x5089).
Aborted
*** glibc detected *** /opt/cloudgps/cloudgps: corrupted double-linked list: 0x0006efb0 ***

CloudGPS is taking part in Maemo Coding Competition. I encourage those who like this app to vote for it in Location & Navigation Apps Voting Thread. Thank you very much!

I have just uploaded newer version to extras-devel. It should now properly show up in Application Manager for update but there is a downside - catorise shows CloudGPS icon in Others section.
There is only one new feauture added: now you can use accelerometer to browse the map. Enabling/disabling accelerometer is done by pressing X on keyboard. Take into account that accelerometer is calibrated in the moment it is enabled.
From now on I will focus on bigger changes. Here is a short roadmap for next releases:
0.3 - update tile engine to properly support 3D and memory management, maybe portrait mode.
0.4 - make it configurable and introduce other tile providers that are configured with a config file. I will try to make the config file format similiar to other tile mapping apps so users will be able to use providers they like. By default only OSM based providers will be included (for licensing reasons).
0.5 - add search and turn-by-turn navigation based on Cloudmade services.
0.6 - add support for tracks in GPX, KML (possibly others) format.
Of course there are other planned features - (offline mode, flyby for route, 3D buildings, possibly 3D terrain, support for skins, track calculator). I am not cerain at the momemt in which order they will be added.
And again: if you like this project, please show your support by voting for it here. Thanks.
