UMPC + GPS.RADAR = Google Earth on the go

Thursday, August 24, 2006 (00:00 UTC)

When Windows Origami was but a twinkle in the rumormonger's eye, we here at Ogle Earth (and by we, we mean I) speculated on its possible use as a portable Google Earth with live positioning via GPS. Not six months later, enter JGUI's GPS.RADAR, available now for download as a freeware beta.

Of course, none of us (and by us, we mean I) actually have an ultra-mobile PC (UMPC), but it's programs like GPS.RADAR that begin to make Origamis interesting. (Via ZDNet's The Mobile Gadgeteer)
