Great potential fcrochik!
Hitting "enter" from the keyboard does indeed cause it to resume tracking while moving. Perhaps adding this to the drop down menu until you settle on an on screen element will at least eliminate the need to open the keyboard which is difficult when the N900 is mounted in a moving vehicle.
Hopefully you will continue to concentrate on this apps moving map capabilities by adding things like user settings for "direction up" and "map lead".
Portrait mode causes these parameters now to display the position on the right side of the screen cutting lead time down when traveling west to east.
BTW, how often does the traffic layer refresh? Could this be a user setting too?

Another feature request
From my own experience and what I read in the threads finding an address from contacts in ovi-maps doesn' work, what makes it quite useless.
Would it be possible to import addresses from contacts to get navigation infos ?
CU - M_99
I plan to integrate geeps with mycontacts so you can get directions to get to a contact address and/or add business you find on geeps to the the addressbook.
p.s. Before anybody start complaining about having to use mycontacts: it will be a dbus signal any other developer will be welcome to use it.

"map lead"? Didn't get what you mean by that either ....Can you explain?

The second error is that the "yes" on the message box should make the application try to load the map again but I got it wrong

Open your standard web browser on the device and try to go to http://www.crochik.com/gps.html just to make sure that you can.
Let me know.
