Hi Max,
I will be releasing an iOS version first that will run on the iPhone and iPad. Following that I will be working on the Android version. By doing it that way 70% of the code required for the Android version will already be in place.
Apologies to all for the delay with this but life tends to have a way of throwing few wobbly's at you and generally getting in the road of doing what you want to do. i.e. my Clutch died in the Troopy and had to be replaced completely, parts flown up from Brisbane, including all associated systems master / slave cylinders, etc. a week and $2000 later it was back on the road. It was a good thing I was also laid low and off work with the flu at the time so I didn't need to use it, hey 8)
I am however now back on the case and making good progress.
I showed the app to a couple of the fellows at the Cairns Coffee catch-up on Saturday. I have it running on my iPhone and iPad already. Its early days yet so it doesn't do too much just yet. But I have it displaying the map and tracking the users heading, speed, altitude, position, etc. Thats why its an Alpha version.
I am currently setting up a way people can download an Alpha version of the product shortly to test it out on their devices and provide feedback.
To do this I use a third party website as do most other App developers. This will require you to setup an account with the third party and register your devices with them. That way I can then provision the software on the devices. Its a bit involved and all to do with Apples distribution model / license but its the only way I have of providing test versions of the software to people. I will send an invite out shortly.
Cheers,
Grant

I would hate to think where to start with something you are trying to achieve.
