You suspect correctly.

One thing that prevents me using this as navi is that the my location is always at the center of the map so I cannot see the intersections early enough (don't want to zoom out that much). Would it be possible to change the map display in the way that my position is at the bottom of the screen when moving? That way the map would show much more information about what's coming ahead.

I think it's less important to see what's behind you when driving.

That's what the "Lead" option is supposed to provide, but it doesn't work for me.

Can't find the package anymore in extras-testing. Any suggestions?

Edit: I know the new name is Mappero now, but still no luck.

When I'm looking for a place, it crashes. I write the name of the place in Go To Address, then I press ok and then the application crashes.Does it happen to you too?

I want to download maps on my PC and then copy it to N900. (easier to manage space vs coverage ratio). Do you know what software would help me download it on my PC in a mappero format?

n900: I drove a little bit today and I have to admit that this soft has a potential.

It would also be handy to keep direction hints permanently on the screen. I like to know that my next "turn right" is in 50 km

Do you guys now if there is any chance to have auto map rotation based on the drive direction or we can't have it with static maps?

I have been trying to get the nexrad weather layer working in the latest version of mappero, but from some reading it seems that it needs the proj library to be able to support WMS layers (which the nexrad layer is). Does anyone know where to find proj for the n900? I looked in extras-testing and extras-devel but could not find them.

If I am understanding your question correctly, you can enable this by clicking on the auto-center icon (the thing that looks sort of like a gear) and then clicking the "Auto-Rotate" button.

Ok, so I enabled extras-devel and ran apt-get install proj as root to install proj, but the weather layer still does not show on the map. Does anyone here have this working, or is it known to be broken?
