Your Sony PlayStation Portable as a map. Yes, that's the goal of coder Royale with the homebrew application PSP-Maps, a reader which retrieves location charts from Google Maps.
Previous builds have already incorporated support for the Danzeff Keyboard and Google Moon, Mars, and Sky. Today brings us to version 1.1 where coder Royale adds two more changes. Check it straight from Royale's log:
version 1.1 (2008-05-01)
* added experimental and basic KML files support
* removed the buggy Google Moon visible view
KML is short for Keyhole Markup Language which allows you to express geographic annotation and visualization on 2D or 3D Earth browsers such as Google Maps. Actually, KML was developed for Google Earth. Think of KML as a bookmark for a certain position in a map.
Unlike Google Earth though were all surfaces are covered, Google Moon can only show you the landing points of all the Apollo spacecrafts. All the same, with coder Royale's bug fix, you can kiss those viewing problems away.
For the complete instructions on how to install PSP-Maps version 1.1, please refer to the readme attached to the file. Remember, safety first! Also, you can check dev Royale's site over at the via link. The source code, a wishlist of future features and a tutorial can be found there.
