In other words, it's awesome.
A Google search tells me this program was ported to the 770, and presumably worked... then any mention of it vanished off the face of the Earth in late 2006. Any idea what happened to it?
If I recall properly, Gnuite worked on it briefly, then created maemo-mapper. Which is OMG 5000% better than gpsdrive. As someone who used gpsdrive on the 770 and on PC's, maemo-mapper is the way to go.
