[OSGeo-Discuss] Comparison of Mobile GIS applications

[Bob Basques]

All, 

Just resurrecting this thread.  It's been 6 months.  I've done a couple of little projects with the N900 which are detailed here: http://pwultra5.ci.stpaul.mn.us/OPERA/ 

Question to Chris S., do you have any other insights into the directions that the N900 device (or others like it) might be taking in the future (that you can mention? :c)  I'm setting up some netbooks next for the two projects listed above, using essentially the same software stack as used for the N900, which it is somewhat amazing when you think about it.  I would still like to revisit the Mobile controls issues for OpenLayers and GeoMoose at some point, but focusing on flexibility with software stack at the moment. 

Thanks 

bobb

Note that the current development platform for the N900 (and likely
for the next 6 months at least) is still Maemo. The two platforms
will likely not differ greatly; a lot of the UI functionality is already
SDK-level in Maemo, and apps themselves likely won't change much
other than packaging. In either case, it's mostly just a Very Small
Linux Box.
