Hi, I just got a 770 from a friend in Nokia for free with a bluetooth gps rx'er ,as its old hat now that the new 800 is around.
This is a great program, so thanks to all those that have developed it, and I have it working fine in the uk with Virtual earth Hybrid/sts/imagery; also google sts, but can't get google imagery working - one issue.
Another thing I would like to do is load topo maps for walking eg 1:50k and 1:25k. Is it possible to load your own maps with say an ESRI world file:
Line 1: A, pixel size in the x direction in map units (ususally deg long per pixel)
Line 2: D: rotation about y axis (ususally 0)
Line 3: B: rotation about x axis (ususally 0)
Line 4: E: pixel size in the y direction in map units (ususally deg long per pixel)
Line 5: C: x coordinate of the center of the upper left pixel (51.45256)
Line 6: F: y coordinate of the center of the upper left pixel (-1.27247)
or possibly a geoTIFF, which has the geo coding within the tif header?
Hence one could scan, or download a piece of map, coordinate it using either method the load into a separate directory fo use? I can supply examples of both world file with tile and geoTIFF>
The only other way would be to cut up the map into the exact pieces that Maemomapper file directory expect, could be v labour intensive, especially the file creation/naming.
Cheers.

acttually.. I'm thinking of a way to do some simple gpx calculations while offline.. but that's another story...
but for now, what I really want is to be able to send the gpx requests to a socks proxy, (set up localy), so that I can bypass a firewall...
ps: thanks for the tip. I didn't think of that!
