Guest shadamehr Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 I know it's not strictly helpful, but just a heads up to say I can already do this for free, with SportsTracker, on my Symbian SmartPhone. AND then Web 2.0 upload it so all the world can see: http://sportstracker.nokia.com/nts/user/pr....do?u=Shadamehr So would be nice if the same functionality finally made it to WM.

Guest Subliminal Aura Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Yup plenty of apps out there : I'm using trackme : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340667 Works absolutely great ! Even works in realtime but uploading gps positions to my web server which is integrated with googlemaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SeizSys Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 THIS LOOKS LIKE A REAL COOL APP BUT ON MY KAISER IT SAYS WHILE TRYING TO REGISTER The application needs an internet connection to request a key THERE ALSO DOESNT SEEM TO BE A WAY TO REMOVE IT FROM PROGRAMS. There is no entry in your programs folder... As it did not come with an installer, you don't need to uninstall - just delete the files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Subliminal Aura Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Doh ! Abandon development and just use trackme :( It makes your app look like it was designed to run on windows 3.11. No offence mate but it was a good effort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even works in realtime but uploading gps positions to my web server which is integrated with googlemaps. I had a look at the site, but according to the To Do list, there are still lots to do, AND it states that exporting .gpx files, uploading 'offline' at a later point, and running in the background, are all still"To Do". So clearly not a patch on SportsTracker. Additionally, in terms of Web 2.0 and uploading, whilst it's good that you can upload to your own server, for those that don't have one, I see major issues if half the planet upload to the author's own server, in terms of resilience and it's ability to cope. But still, a good little app for WM - albeit PDA NOT SmartPhone versions of it only! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So clearly not a patch on SportsTracker. Thats strange.... I just start the app up with autostart settins and let it run in the background. It functions as expected by either uploading in realtime or saving points offline. Mind you I'm only interested in saving kml files so can't comment about .gpx files Additionally, in terms of Web 2.0 and uploading, whilst it's good that you can upload to your own server, for those that don't have one, I see major issues if half the planet upload to the author's own server, in terms of resilience and it's ability to cope. But you can save .kml files offline and read them in directly with googleearth so who needs a server anyway ? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nevertheless, it sounds like WM users at least have a basic platform to cover some of the aspects SportsTracker does. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course real time position display is included already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
