More progress in the java applet to view OSM data...
Allowing keyboard browsing, going left, right, up, down, zoom in, zoom out and back to GPS fix.
Included NMEA decoding function (only GPRMC for now)
Still some stuff to go:
- Bluetooth serial link with GPS
- Caching of data into local database
- Reading Cell ID from GSM phone
- Automatic GPX upload as you go through unmapped places
Server needs:
- Cell ID database
- Real time traffic data from GPS users

I really think you should look at a project I'm in. Although it's mainly for the Neo1973 (openmoko.org), we are also making a nice protocol to share locations with other people, and a JavaME midlet.
It's located at http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/gpslocationsharing

I also think that it would be useful to have a look at gpsVP (http://www.gpsvp.com) - GPS software for Windows Smartphones. Currently it supports:
- Windows Mobile Smartphone 5.0 or Windows Mobile 6 Standard (devices with keyboard and no touchscreen).
- Windows Mobile for PocketPC 5.0 or Windows Mobile 6 Professional (devices with touchscreen).
- Windows Smartphone 2003 (devices with keyboard and no touchscreen).
- Windows Mobile 2003/2003SE (devices with touchscreen).
- Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista (desktops and notebooks).
It has a support of OSM built-in.
It is freeware and recently its author (in OSM wiki it is User:Vsevolod Shorin) asked for help and decided to make it open-source.

It's me again. First, I'd like to note that the link in the previous comment is incorrect, it should be osm.wiki/index.php/User:Vsevolod_Shorin. And second, gpsVP, apart from OSM maps support, also collects information about traffic. You can see it in this category - http://gpsvp.garminmapsearch.com/?cat=10. Good luck!

I’m not sure how closed-source Windows software would help diogo make a j2me client, unless it’s just to borrow ideas ;)

Well, as I said before, I'm working right now on an Applet, but eventually it will become a J2ME client. I also have plans to make this application open source, but not on this moment, I still have some ideas that I plan on implementing. Also, I am trying to figure out how I can make money with this program in open source form.
