WhereAmI: See Your Location on Your Storm Background (9500 GSM Only)
This is a slick app that I think would really take off if only it worked on more devices. It simply shows you where you are on a map and sets that as your homescreen background. The main problem is that it only works with the 9500 Storm GSM version so even 9530 CDMA Storm users are out of luck!
The app is a bit pricey at $4.95 but I think it is a real novelty. I am hoping that in the future I will be able to set my homescreen to show either the weather forecast and cycle with my location on a map using cell towers or even my stock portfolio. I think that would really be cool!
Features:
- Configurable zoom level
- Configurable refresh rate
- Maps are taken from Google
- This application does not support CDMA devices
