Description:
Where Am I? (or WAI for short) is a small application that interfaces your Bluetooth GPS receiver with map software (recently with Google Maps Mobile - GMM).
What it recently does is query GPS about your current location and then tells GMM to show that position on the map, giving you a taste of real GPS based navigation software....
Update Description:
v1.4:
- Added support for latest Google's query handling (you must update if you wish to use WAI with GMM - all the older versions no longer work correctly)
- Added 5-Way navigation support
v1.3:
- Added Battery, Radio Signal and Bluetooth gadgets to the main form
- Added "Copy" menu item so you can easily put your current coords into the clipboard for any purpose
v1.2:
- Fixed a nasty crash on exit. A must-have update!

Interesting if it would work, but in Spanish, Google Maps does not accept the data this application sends. It should be a GMM feature.

Very nice app. I moved Google Maps back to main memory for this app. Oee item missing that would be VERY nice to have is a readout for "elevation".

It is an excellent software, but the location cannot be sent to Google Map on Chinese OS Treo.

I am using this app on my treo 650 with 3 different GPS receivers. Works like a miracle! Absolutely no problems or glitches. I wish there was a version for Windows Mobile 5 smartphones. Congrats to the author.

I tried this with my Garmin and it did nothing. I emailed the author and two weeks later still no reply.
