Lots of New Caches Found Using My G1 and GeoBeagle

Posted on : 02-06-2009 | By : Brian A. Thomas | In : Geocaching

I have now found a total of 11 caches, 6 of which have been using my T-Mobile G1, and GeoBeagle that I downloaded off the Android Market. I have to say I find that the G1 does really well in the cover of woods. Far better than I expected. GeoBeagle is my favorite Android app so far, and its free, unlike some of the other geocaching apps for Android devices. GeoBeagle is still fairly early in the beta cycle, but there are no real bugs. A few features would be nice to have, and I put a request for those on the forums for it, and the UI could be made a little easier, but all in all a very good app with a very bright future. I am at a loss as to if features should be added/and current features tweaked first, or upgrade UI. With C#, you start with the UI and work on the back end after. This isn’t so much the case with Java, or so I’ve seen so far from what little I have done with Java. I am going to skip listing all my finds this time, if you want to know, the geocaching icon to the side of the page should take you to my geocaching profile. There are two Did Not Finds on that list, none could be blamed on the G1 or GeoBeagle. The one I got a hint for and forgot one of the obvious things about geocaching, the caches are not always on the ground, as for the other, nobody has found it and logged it yet, so it may be MIA.
