Re: 3D GL Maps USING ACCELEROMETER!!!

i think its a really cool proof of concept but little functional use. once you tilt the screen youre looking at it from an angle making it harder to view- it woldnt be useful in a car cradle for driving directions and such. Its a cool toy but i cant see it being particularly functional to have accelerometer tilting.

The map program itself seems nice- like a google maps with 3d view. Id like to see that developed into a new 3rd program to google and live search and drop the accelerometer tilting and just use a finger "spinnable" 3d view (kind of like igo8 )
