 +Code was done using pymaemo (python designed for maemo that uses gtk for layout management). GPS coordinate conversion to distance was done using formula found from the

 ===== Conclusion ===== ===== Conclusion =====
  
-Your group comments and thinkings of developing you project in maemo +● Maemo didn't have good python libraries to draw image layers. 
-environment. + 
 +● Layout was quite tricky to make (still not what we 
 +wanted). 
 + 
 +● GPS was hard to debug because connetions 
 +to satellites can't be made inside. Maemo Xephyr couldn't emulate GPS easily.
  
 +● Scratchbox wasn't all too useful. It broke down once and Xephyr can't be rebooted without using command-line. 
  
 +● Python hugely fastened development.
