google earth - [was: Re: Another simple GPS+GPRS idea]

[David Ormsbee]

We can still have an application that simply reads GPS data from the
phone and hits the Google Maps website with it, right?  The site
accepts long/lat. coordinates, and even has a satellite view mode
(though the quality isn't as high as in Google Earth).
