Google Maps Navigation now available for Android 1.6

“A few weeks ago we launched Google Maps Navigation (Beta) as a free feature of Google Maps on Android 2.0 devices.

Using Google services over your phone’s data connection brings important benefits to GPS navigation users, like using Google search (typed or spoken) to enter your destination; fresh map, business, and traffic data; and satellite and Street View imagery along your route.This release also includes the new Layers feature, which lets you overlay geographical information on the map. View My Maps, transit lines, Wikipedia articles about places, and more.So if you’re traveling this Thanksgiving, you’ll be able to enjoy the benefits of an internet connection, whether it’s free Wi-Fi at the airport or Google Maps Navigation in your car.If you have a phone running Android 1.6, you can download an updated version of Google Maps from Android Market to use Navigation today. Google Maps Navigation is in beta and is currently available in the United States. Some features of Android 2.0 are not available on Android 1.6, for example, the ability to use the “navigate to” voice command as shown in our demo video. However, you can still create a shortcut that will allow you to launch Navigation and start getting directions to a specific place from your current location with just a single touch from your home screen. For example, you can create a “Home” shortcut to quickly navigate home, no matter where you are. Just use the “Add” menu item from the home screen, then choose “Shortcuts”, then “Directions.” Please visit our forum to give us feedback, or our Help Center to get help using Google Maps Navigation.”via googlemobile.blogspot.com

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Preview

“The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 might just be the most anticipated Android-based phone since the arrival of the Motorola Droid.The X10 promises to be the most powerful Android smartphone on the market thanks to a 1 GHz Snapdragon processor, 8 GB of included storage, an 8.1 megapixel camera, and Sony’s proprietary Nexus UX platform, which sits on top of Google’s operating system.I spent some hands-on time with this device at a recent Sony Ericsson event in New York, and this phone is indeed very impressive.Many of Brighthand’s readers have been concerned about the size of the X10, but it honestly isn’t a huge handheld, despite the large WVGA touchscreen. This smartphone is roughly the same size as the original iPhone, and easily fits in the palm of your hand.To illustrate this, I took a photo of the X10 next to a BlackBerry Curve 8330 and an iPod touch 2G with PowerMat case.” Read more here:

Voting Question: Question about gay people in Christian schools?

Well this whole thing started when i told my mom i saw two girls making out at a football game. After i told her she said thats why my sister is going to a Christian private school. I then said what makes you think there will be no gay people there and she said they would be expelled. I basically said they can’t do that just because they’re gay. Sure like if PDA is against the rules they prolly could, but if they dont and are just a gay couple can they? So am i right or is she right?
thats really sad. im totally straight and chirstian and i don’t see anything wrong with gay people. it makes it hard to respect the people at churches when they’re so hypocritical. aren’t you suppost to love your neighbor or whatever?
i feel like she’s protecting her too much. i go to public schools so i get used to things like people hooking up in closets and stuff. i think that the answer isn’t to protect her because when she’s out of that school and into the real world she’ll be eaten alive.
