I just downloaded it and installed it and I like the new additions, no I haven't tried it yet while mobile but I like what I see so far. When you said the "Left/Right" arrows I was looking on the face of my HTC Touch Pro and the screen and didn't see any of those keys, DUH, then I slid open my keyboard and sure enough they worked. The Touch Pro hides the keyboard when in 'normal' position. I also noticed that the Up/Down keys affect the zoom level, nice. I find my phone responds faster to those arrow keys than the "+" "-" buttons on the screen. When I kept the left arrow key pressed the map would cycle from map to just circle and back to the map and keep cycling, but the right only increased more detail to the map. Dave N8PU

From: aprsisce@... [mailto:aprsisce@...] On Behalf Of ldeffenb Sent: Wednesday, August 05, 2009 6:35 PM To: aprsisce@... Subject: [aprsisce] New APRSISCE For Windows Mobile Released! Beta Testers, I just posted the first new release of APRSISCE (for Windows Mobile) to the Yahoo group Files section. You can find it there as: APRSISCE6P090805.zip There's lots of little stuff in there, but the big thing is... IT DOES MAPS! It hooks into OpenStreetMap.org's servers and dynamically loads maps in the background and displays them on your phone. Left/Right arrows will decrease/increase the density (transparency) of the maps in 5% increments. If you take it down to zero, the maps will disappear and the old circle will come back. Before copying this onto your phone, please make a copy of the version you've been using, just in case something goes worng! Please post feedback here to the group with comments, successes, and (hopefully not) failures of this new version. Lynn (D) - KJ4ERJ - Author of APRSISCE PS. Oh, it also does Overlay characters on the Icons! Even the really tiny ones! PPS. It also tracks (and draws) every station that moves, so expect lots of lines if you view an active APRS area. To clear the lines, double-click the Odometer. The first confirm is for your track (if you have any) and the second confirm is for the other stations' tracks (if there are any).
