Where Am I? - A Google Maps Mobile Add-on


Where Am I? is a free companion product to Google Maps Mobile running on a Palm OS Treo or PDA. Written by Marcin Orlowski, Where Am I? interfaces with a third-party Bluetooth GPS receiver (purchased separately) to determine your current location. You can then take those coordinates and pass them to Google Maps Mobile which will return with a map (street map or satellite photo) showing your present location.

This is just the sort of thing that would have helped me last week while I was driving to the venue for a presentation I was supporting. Treo customers that have a Palm GPS Navigator Smartphone Edition or other GPS solution should find this application a must have for their mobile software tool kit.
