You will find "Google Latitude Updater" in extras-devel.

I didn't think of Google Latitude...
I don't see why not.... It is probably quite easy... Has the googlelatitude garage project already produced an application?
I don't particularly like the idea of sharing my location information so I will not spend much time creating but if it is easy enough I will be glad to incorporate it to geeps.

I do understand your point but I am afraid out of all the applications mine is the one that we won't be able to integrate to the others.
I believe all the other applications (even the ones using google data) render their own maps. Geeps uses a web browser (webkit) and leaves all the rendering to "google".

You also need to keep in mind that they are not all developed using the same language and may have different goals.
Like you I would like to just have ONE gps application that really works with all included (offline, voice directions, good local business search, integration with other apps, poi....) but haven't found it yet.
Different goals? I don't think so. Maybe different priorities, but I would be surprised if the goal is not becoming a good GPS application (and then its not what I'm looking for).
Anyway, thanks for your work!

it should work on FAP or the HAM (make sure to update the list of packages first) or try:
on the x-terminal as root:
Code:
apt-get update apt-get install libqtm-location apt-get install geeps
download the latest .deb
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d....0.5_armel.deb

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 ?

How do you find the version?
geeps -v doesn't seem to do it, or it's not in my path.
How do you go back to your location?
How to zoom?
n/m these, found first Post entries...
More questions I'm sure.
A help section(commands) and about section might be kewl up top?
