I'm really interested in developing a Linux-based sim card application that can run in an otherwise disused PDA. I want to be able to carry my tracking with me.

Greetings all! I track various items here and there with various degrees of success. I've used my own web based (smartphone enabled) tracking for some time (attached screen capture) and have recently discovered DAYTUM. The problem is the connection. Local storage is just required! (tweets, SMS, email suffer from format inconsistency and post processing complexity). We need an iPhone app. Anyone have leads on one? Thanks!! edited 20:23, 7 May 2009

I think on our most basic level we are creative beings and as we grow older we tend to get pulled or pushed away from that. Well we need to develop more and more WIKIs like this, nice information. Benigno of Sikat ang Pinoy
