Shame, with the offical restrictions on what apps can and can't do, the cool things remain in the realm of pre v2.0 software only. no desire to upgrade my 1.02 firmware iphone. yay for early adopters for once. PS: people here in australia complain that iphone 3G keeps reverting to 2.5G edge about 50-80% of the time. oh well, yes, the new itunes app store is totally full of crap. i think the best apps were actually released via nullriver’s apptapp installer.

Nope and nope. Weird too, that some of the best designed jailbroken apps haven't yet surfaced (such as the perfectly designed Converter app). I still reckon your stuff would be good enough to find its way above the garbage though.

I have XCode installed though, so, as soon as I find some free time... it would probably be easy on a technical level but would take quite a lot of time, since it is built on my rather monolithic set of graphics and scripting libraries I’ve developed over the years.

Main difference is that it won't be on a closed loop of road and may therefore offer more variety in scenery (and there may be intersections).
