What am I doing wrong? When I try to download POI, I get "File not found". I just installed Maemo Mapper 2.2 last night. If I go to the Source URL in my desktop browser, it's indeed not there. What is the correct POI URL? I have by default, http://www.gnuite.com/cgi-bin/poi.cgi?<arguments>

This is on a 770 with OS2006.

thanks,
Frank

There's also a DBUS interface for Maemo Mapper, which doesn't have a "send address" function yet, but will soon.

But how to send the address information from the browser to Maemo Mapper is the real problem. djs_tx's suggestion (a network daemon listening for certain network traffic patterns) may sound straightforward, but the kinds of patterns to look for are likely complex and non-constant. Roger's idea is likely impossible without access to the browser's source code.
