TrackMyJourney - Live GPS Tracking Buddy

Introduction
TMJ-Mobile is a Java mobile phone application that uses GPS data to provide a number of functions, including navigation, location tracking, map display and route plotting. It receives its location coordinates by communicating via Bluetooth with a separate GPS receiver, or via the phones internal GPS if supported. The phones built-in GPRS/3G/GSM data connection is then used to send its location over the internet to the TrackMyJourney website where you can then share your location and recorded tracks with your friends.

Requirements
The program is written in Java (J2ME) and works on a number of mobile phones, in particular most new Sony Ericsson, Nokia and BlackBerry models. As a minimum requirement, the phone should have Bluetooth or an Internal GPS Device, be able to run Java applications (often listed in phone literature as J2ME or '3D Java Games'), and support the MIDP-2.0/CLDC-1.1 Java device configuration (this should include most mid- to high-end phones bought in the last couple of years).

v0.6.1 Released

Main Addition: Track Visualisation Page (key [8]) shows a fully scrollable 2D or 3D view of the track similar to the Plan and Navigation pages, but now allows each individual trackpoint to be examined and the track replayed.

Other changes
- Redesigned Settings menu, moved 'Units' and 'Zero Key Action' into it from the Display menu.

- New Settings/Activity Profile menu - allows various parameters to be individually set for different types of activity, and then quickly selected when necessary.

- New Activity Profile option 'Maximum Track Speed' limits the speed at which TMJ will add a new point to the track. If the current speed is above this threshold then no new points will be added to the track. Its purpose is to reduce the speed-spikes which can appear in the track, particularly when moving slowly (eg walking).

- New Activity Profile option 'Track Target Speed' for use when exercising. A separate new readout on the Text/TRACK(2) page shows the duration of time and distance covered whilst above this speed. Mostly used when running to calculate the time spent doing 'useful' exercise, thus ignoring any time spent walking (whilst out of breath!)

- New Activity Profile option 'Max Plan AutoPan Zoom' sets the maximum scale that the Plan page will use when AutoPan and AutoZoom are enabled.

- New Tools/Waypoint Tools/Select Nearest Waypoint function selects the nearest waypoint from the predefined selection Groups.

- New Tools/Waypoint Tools/Waypoint Alerts function displays an alert when waypoints become closer than a defined distance.

- Added extra options into Zero-key shortcut menu.

- Experimental 'high-precision' location displayed when track recording is paused (shown as a blue crosshair on the plan/map pages). For use when stationary to get a 'best-guess' averaged reading of the current location.

- Added extra Geocache icons. (Note that the existing geocache icon has been swapped with the Cafe icon - sorry for any inconvenience/confusion this may cause!)

- Experimental 'Menu/Settings/Allow Internal GPS Cost' option on versions that use the Java Location API (eg Nokia N95, Blackberry, etc) to see whether this enables the phones Assisted-GPS function.

- New Waypoint menus now show the most recently used Waypoint types at the top of the list for quick access.

- File selection dialogs now remember the last used folder location.

- Default filenames for exporting the Track/Route/Waypoints now include the current date.

- Added Export Waypoints to GPX file option.

- Settings option to select Dark or Light background for Gauges page.

- Settings option to enable/disable gradient usage in Calorie calculations.

- Pausing Track Recording now also prevents Live location from being uploaded to website

Plus various other minor changes which I've forgotten about!

Garmin Mobile XT at Samsung i550w

I’ve been testing the new Garmin Mobile XT application recently and honestly, it’s not too shabby. Garmin’s been in the GPS biz for, well, as long as I can remember, but this is their first attempt at a mobile app. Previously they’ve focused mainly on the dedicated in-car and handheld devices. Garmin Mobile XT will cost you $99 and comes with all necessary maps, as well as access to the Garmin Online features.

The app ships on a 2GB microSD card, with micro-to-mini and micro-to-SD adapters in the package as well. The app is tied directly to this memory card, which can be good or bad, depending on how you look at it. Garmin informs me that there is also a version available on DVD that will allow you to put the app on any memory card (or internal memory, in the case of the N95 8GB or N81 8GB), though this version, for some reason, is $40 more. I’m told it has to do with how the map data is licensed from Navteq. Shipping it on the microSD, however, is good because it makes installation dead easy. Seriously you stick the card in your phone and go. Installation is automatic, and I think alot of folks will find that really appealing.

The main screen of Garmin Mobile XT is very user-friendly, with really few options. The first button, “Where To?” is really self-explanatory, and lets you either navigate Home (I really like having such quick access to navigate home) or enter an address or use the POIs and all that. Below that takes you to the map view, and then Tools, Settings, and Exit. Really simple. In this screen also, the top left corner shows the strength of your GPS signal, which I really like.

When entering addresses, you start with the State, and enter in each part of the address bit by bit. You can search for partial city and street names, which makes things really easy, though there’s no T9 support. For instance, if I’m navigating somewhere in North Richland Hills, well that’s a long city to type out with multitap. However, I can put in just ‘North R’ and Garmin Mobile XT will return a list of cities matching that, from which I can select. This really makes things easy. There is also support for navigating to a contact’s address, but I was unable to actually use this, despite having the address correctly formatted in my address book. The application kept wanting me to manually type in the details.

Asus P320 Pda Phone

Asus made their GPS equipped 2.5G PDA phone official and is called P320. We had already unveiled this device recently under the Galaxy Mini code name.

When you hold this PDA phone you are impressed by its compact size and super light weight. From its set of features and price it seems like P320 is positioned as an entry level model; mostly for first time PDA phone owners.Its main features:

Furthermore, we have built-in handsfree, document viewer (MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF), organizer,150 MB of built-in memory that can be expanded up to 4 GB with a microSD card, and a standard Li-Ion 1200 mAh battery.

Another cool feature of Samsung i550w is its 3.15 Megapixel camera with auto focus and flash that will allow users to take pictures at a pretty high quality. There's also video recording capability, plus a secondary VGA video-call camera.

Samsung i550 Design and ergonomics

Design and ergonomics

The candy bar form factor taken as a base for the device’s design might seem unusual as compared to the plethora of various sliders available on the market; this little comeback to a classic solution looks fresh and intriguing, seems like Samsung are looking for an extra audience comprised of people who can’t stand the slider form factor, and actually such customers make up a considerable number, looking for modern solutions that keep to the classics. The phone can’t be called a typical Samsung product judging by its looks only, it stands out from the rest of Samsung devices and that’s another advantage, making it more noticeable and originally looking. Some people argue that its design might be mimicking some of the Nokia and SonyEricsson devices up to the point where it invokes no straight associations with any particular brand in the minds of brand loyal customers and at the same time is equally appealing to the fans of Samsung, SE and Nokia as well - largely due to the intriguing, delusive design of the keypad and casing. The dimensions are very compact (115x53x13,8 mm), considering the screen size an analogy with Nokia E50 suggests itself - the both are comparable in terms of size (save for width), and the E50 model used to be the market’s most compact S60 smartphone (now this title is held by Nokia E51). The thickness is quite standard for a modern handset and can hardly arouse any reproaches. On the whole, the dimensions and build of Samsung i550 produce a very nice impressions due to the good balance and the easy feel it gives to your hand.

Samsung i550

The development and production of S60-based smartphones by the Samsung company has a long and rich history, the precursor of the now abundant S60 family being Samsung D700, a folder with rotating screen - ironically, it didn’t make it to the market due to a number of reasons and its commercial production was cancelled yet it remained a key product that served as a base for a few other smartphones like D720 and D730 which managed to enter the market, though too late to win good sales - so they were soon phased out. On the day of release the two devices’ specifications look rather appealing, but the delay in development completely negated their strong points in the competition with the rival products, so when the two entered the market they looked no more than just a couple of wallflowers posing little interest to the potential buyer. It’s not solely the prolonged development time that contributed to the low popularity of those, but the lack of reputation with the Samsung company as a smartphone manufacturer - in fact, there was little reputation at all since they were largely unknown in that sense. The tried and true Nokia smartphones were still largely preferred as a better choice since that company had been long known for their variety of highly functional smart solutions. Any comparisons between those and the ones offered by Samsung weren’t to Samsung’s advantage, and the current state of things isn’t much different.

Samsung’s positions on the front of WM-based PDA phones look more challenging, however a number of persistent flaws among these products is to stay as ell. The solutions issued by the company in this market sector look quite competitive and balanced, comfortable and technologically advanced as well; The i600 and i710 models can be good samples of this, appearing rather successful phones yet sporting little demand on the actual market. This can be explained by the powerful PR influence of the RIM (Research in Motion) and HTC (HighTech Computers) companies a strong market presence of which can be felt respectively in USA and Europe. Samsung are trying to change the situation since the portfolio expansion is on the company’s priority task list and is vital to their corporate welfare. Even given the small demand on a limited number of markets, Samsung are trying to supply this demand with an adequate range of products. It was largely due to the wide product range that let Samsung occupy the second line in the world’s top phone manufacturers chart once again, and the Samsung guys don’t look like they are planning to lose the position in the predictable future. For instance, the new i780 has been recently announced, being the world’s first WM smartphone sporting a 320x320 display, let alone the high overall functionality.

Samsung i550 screenshots

But let’s get back to the Symbian and S60 platforms. The Samsung possesses a license entitling the use of the S60 hardware platform in their mobile products, though on the other hands the release dates of the respective devices are bound to the release dates of Nokia products sporting the OS version. Every sold Samsung smartphone counts to the financial benefit of Nokia as well, since Samsung are paying them royalties for the use of their platform. The third and the most grave factor is that Samsung are likely to appear promoting not their own solutions but rather increasing the ranks of customers loyal to that very specific platform, thus catering to Nokia’s interests in a big way as well.

The Samsung i550 is the first GPS-enabled device from the Korean giant and it’s a great start. The quad band HSDPA/UMTS/EDGE S60 device features a 3.2-megapixel camera (AF w/ image & video editor), 150MB of internal memory, charging via microUSB, 2.6-inch screen, 128MB of RAM, dedicated hot keys, and a trackball ala Sidekick/BlackBerry. Something is going on with Google on this one, but everyone at Samsung is tight-lipped.

The smartphone market, as the most dynamic and rapidly expanding one, poses a great deal of interest to all of the manufacturer companies, and Samsung’s activities in this sphere have been on a peak during the recent months. As it was already mentioned, the critical factor crippling Samsung’s smartphone strategy is the delay in development ending up with new models having morally aged prior to their release dates. Even nowadays this process can be observed in a number of occasions. The i520 model announced at the last year’s decline looked like a real winner and had no direct rivals by that time, as you might probably remember it was a stylish slider sporting a touch keyboard based off the latest platform build (S60 3.1), but it hasn’t been until September 2007 that it entered the market as a publicly available product. Its marketing perspectives now doesn’t look that bright, it’s sure to be phased out and replaced with more forward-looking products over a short period of time due to the estimated low demand. A simplified version, teh i400, was announced at the S60 summit in Madrid, the planned market entry in June failed - the sad dilemma that the product is facing now is either being sold an insufficiently low price resulting in low revenues or suffering from a severe lack of customer demand. That’s clearly understood by the manufacturer - that’s exactly why a large number of new Samsung devices are planned to be introduced to the market in the nearest future during Q4. Even the slightest mistake in advertising, positioning or marketing may lead to an even bigger between Samsung and Nokia on the smartphone market, and filling this gap would become a task next to impossible. A few new smart handsets aimed at winning Samsung new market positions were announced, comprising i450, i550, i560 and i570, each of them having exclusive features unique solely to that particular model.

The first a music-oriented double slider with large stereo speakers providing for an unmatched sound quality and volume, the last one is a slider featuring a QWERTY keyboard, and the two remaining models i550 and i560 are basically the same device (in terms of functionality) but utilizing different form factors - a candy bar and a slider correspondingly. The i560 model hasn’t been officially announced yet but its announce is expected in the nearest future; the solution offers a wide range of features brought together inside a compact body offered at a reasonable price, thus making a product without any direct competition (save for one peculiar device we’ll dwell upon later). As a specimen of the new generation of Samsung smartphones, the i550 deserves a much closer look to let you get acquainted with all of its merits and advantages.
