Oh ya, sorry about that. This was my first time testing it out live so I just realized why it keeps switching between online/offline. I'll fix that later tonight.

Whats the web address for it? There are some for south Africa that I got working before. I'm going to try and get as many types of maps as possible.

I also just switched the demo/demo Google (logged) version to reflect where I went today. I'll keep it on my travels till techy101 gets his computer installed again.

www.whereis.com.au

be nice to be able to use it altho they have logo's stuck on the edge of all images.

EDIT: If i remember correctly the images arn't all the same i tried making a big map out of the tiles from the site and the roads didn't actually match up after about 2 or 3 tiles and thats with the same zoom level so it might be useless.

As far as the logged thing goes that I just mentioned: I don't know why they aren't coming up for todays date (they should come up tomorrow). I'll figure it out tonight. I'm going to eat right now.

My logs for this trip are up now. They should be updated with my daily travels. I'll post again tomorrow right before I am to leave.

I think this software kicks a$$!! Great Job. I was wondering if it would be possible to some how integrate this in any way with SMS. Would it be possible to send a sms through your home computer to your car computer asking it to sms back the coordantes to a map then displaying your location? This way you would not need a constant connection to the net, plus you wouldnt be eating up your monthly mb limit? I appoligize if this has already been covered.
