Hi Mark, > If Maemo Mapper would use the *vector* OSM data and do routing on the > device this obviously would be great. But hey, it's open source, you can hack it :) . IMO MaemoMapper is an excellent open source app, though one always desires even more features. > (and were a bit more stable, although it's much better than all > the other alternatives in that respect), It starts crashing from time to time. I usually solve this be dropping the map container db file. After that, I need to refesh all tiles, but it runs stable again. IMO it looks that there are occasions where the database gets damaged, maybe a crash. [...] > Working with OSM is another subject entirely, and can be done without > any of the navigation-oriented apps. Yes and no. I plan all of my tours, even the mapping tours. That's why I need a device which displays the planned route. Currently I use MaemoMapper for that, and it works just nicely. > JOSM is a nightmare. Well, Autocad as well. JOSM is THE editor which probably allows to do most stuff with osm data. Its usability has improved a lot during the last two years, but true, it still requires a certain learning curve. IMO all of your points are valid. But being an open source hacker myself, I have a lightly different point of view (no offense BTW) :) .
