Route 66 App Drives to the Android Market with GPS

By Electronista Staff: Route 66 hoped to apply a creative take to GPS with the launch of its self-titled GPS app for every Android user (free, Market). The navigation app breaks rank through an augmented reality mode known as Follow Me.

If the phone is facing the road, it can show a virtual car that takes the route the driver should go, giving a clearer sense of what to do than an abstract lane assist feature might. Outside of this, the map system also promises a blend of both online and offline maps, with the option of caching map data for a foreign trip or in areas where data might be spotty. Map packs include 3D data as well as links to weather and Wikipedia when relevant. Industry standards like real-time traffic, speed camera warnings, and an on-foot mode come with the app. The Route 66 app itself is free, although map access normally costs money.

Adobe Releases Final Android Flash Player Upgrade

     Adobe has finally shut the door on all future Flash for mobile operations. The software company today announced the last feature release (version 11.1) for Android and other mobile platforms but promises future security updates. This without a doubt is horrible news for those of you out there who depend on this functionality for websites which don’t provide alternative viewing options for things like videos and for playing games. I hate to beat a dead horse, but Apple was right all along.

We must keep in mind that Flash isn’t entirely dead, as Adobe plans to keep the service in the app ecosystem, just without any major updates to the browser plug-in. Instead, the software maker plans to put all of its time an energy into HTML5 and Adobe Edge. More at Appy Geek
