You would need to build an entirely new browser feature into the app. That makes it slow, buggy and very crash prone. The Twitter app and Safari on the Iphone even though made by professionals is still very buggy and crash prone. Without mentioning that phones don't have the power to fully display the maps; an entirely new application compatible with the maps would have to be devised since the plug-in most likely runs on flash/java.

The IP checking would be more viable, and easier to do. You would just need an interface which utilizes the IP addresses and then checks if it sends packets.

These kind of apps generally require a team of people to get together and code each aspect one by one; not exactly a project to be taken on by a recently formed programmer/ aspirer to programming.I would suggest maybe just building the IP check interface for now and release it as a packet checking app.

My answer is NO.

Edit: You're not the first one to suggest this. Some kid last year also wanted to try... I would suggest trying this by getting a group of people together, not going solo. Sometimes you may find problems that you may never find the solution to until someone else takes one look at it and solves it.

Don't listen to Carge. He's a sourpuss that hates when someone wants to do something creative and AWESOME.

If you can do it then I fully support this idea. Go for it! I will get a droid just so I can use this app.
