[OpenLayers-Dev] touch navigation...

[Andy Deakin]

Hi All,

Bernhard zwischenbrugger has done a lot of work on his own khtmlib, a 
basic mapping library which sports features such as multitouch and the 
geolocation api, both available on the iphone.

iphone: http://www.khtml.org/osm/v0.51/iphone.html

I have no links to this guy or his project, but was impressed when I 
found it a few weeks ago. If you are looking for inspiration for mapping 
on an iphone, it is worth checking out.

Andy
