Banzai Slider

This version has more of the feel of sliding the maps as if they were huge virtual screens that you could zoom in and out of under the newton window (see BanzaiReader). Another new feature, unlimited zoomout with newton press pict books. Compatible with Garmin II and III (set at 4800 baud and with NMEA sentence filter) as well as Scoutmaster GPS (just set Scoutmaster's baudrate at 4800). Rich Drinkard, a beta tester, made some suggestions on activity sounds and map display and so that is improved. He also requested the unlimited zoomout. Evidentally his 28meg flashcard on a mp2100 could hold a very large map to find his way around. I believe we are going to see bigger than 4 meg flashcards officially supported by apple on the mp2100. Rich Drinkard reported me experiments that tripmate does speak NMEA sentences! So, I shall be working on a version for it! I am working on a mp100 Garmin II III and Scoutmaster version with limited features. Notice also the correction in spelling. This is embarrassing and in no way was intended as insulting. But, anyone with Japanese bilingual experience would pronounce Bonzai as "bone sigh" which would hardly get across the feeling of "Live 10,000 years" battle cry or "hip hip hooray". Thanks for avoiding this embarrassment are due Jimmie Jenkins with 20 years experience learning the Japanese language. Also, thanks are due to David Fiedler and Paul S. Hetrick who wished me luck dispite correcting my bad spelling first. I stand a Bonzai, duly pruned and thank my senseis. With Steve Weyer's newt and some helpful correspondence, I have been developing a newton gps navigator program for some years while doing a Ph.D. in theoretical physics with intensive background in differential geometry and carrying on international correspondence. Thanks are due this sensei, too. "The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai in the 8th Dimension" movie inspired the name for my newton gps navigator program. I wanted a distinctive name that people would remember and I really loved and recommend that wonderful crazy video. Who can forget his gallant and wonderful remark when the crowd insulted his to be genius girlfriend : "Hey, don't be mean. Remember, no matter where you go, there you are!" I'd like people to think of that uplifting phrase when they use my gps program to go somewhere! The introduction to the movie spoke of his oriental background and capacity to go in many directions at the same time (he was a neural surgeon, rock star and race car driver and perhaps more that I can't remember). Well, if you pay the $15 dollar share ware fee, you will find out how you too can do "like Buckaroo Banzai" did, go in many directions or routes to be found on menus with my menu search engines. You will, with these routes, be able to adjust your speed to get an estimated time of arrival, "to aim your car in time as well". This is useful for actual racers and also for those of us who need to know how few minutes we actually save by driving recklessly!
