PlazeCamp in January, API Pre-Release   Message List

Re: [plazesapi] PlazeCamp in January, API Pre-Release

Hi all,
Today I wrote a quick hack to allow me to change my activity on plazes via the
Launchy tool. Pretty simple hack with the new API, about 5 minutes work and it
was working like a dream!

On the subject of obtaining cell mast info. This is definately possible, on
Symbian (Nokia) it seems you need to have your code "signed" by Nokia to get at
the info apparently. So, if you/we want to play with the idea of a mobile client
for PlazeCamp, you/we/I would need to get onto that ASAP as it takes some weeks.

Looking at the info HandyProfiles shows me on my E90, it would appear at first
glance that cell masts are identifyable by a number. The numbers I have seen
vary from 5-8 digits. Do we think/know if these could be used?

Anyway... I was really pleased with the ease of working with the API, and with
the quality of the documentation. If I managed to use it then anyone can. ;-)

Lance.

P.s. Anyone who is interested, I threw some notes on what I did over at
