Description
MapMe basically mimics Google Maps functionality but adds storage of location bookmarks/navpoints (including local search capabilities) via db4o.
This is a demo to show you how db4o can provide local persistence in a straight forward fully object oriented way for your Android applications.
It's not meant to compete with Google Maps and it should be rated as a demo of a specific embedded database product.

Locks up and force closes. Does not operate or locate very well.

Lacks workings it seems. Perhaps a great demo framework but not yet ready for widescale use.

Terrible type of application. Cant add locations from gps, which is a no-brainer to have. This is about 25% of what it needs to be.

Damn slow.

Does mylocation in settings, and saves favorite locations

Once it gives directions it will blow gmaps out if the water. Until its pretty useless
