Played on a PPC with a VGA screen. The player is built for QVGA screens, so a couple of issues with tiny icons and only the top half of selection buttons being visible.
No chance of a VGA player being released as the Wherigo project seems to be dead in the water, so I guess I'll have to live with it.
The player seems to demand quite a strong GPS signal - it wouldn't let me complete any tasks until I got 3 bar signal strength whereas all my other GPS apps are happy with any strength signal, so long as I get a fix, obviously.
Overall - an interesting experience that has good potential but which unfortunately seems to have no future.
This is reflected in the extremely small number of wherigo caches in the UK.

I played the tutorial again using my new Samsung Vibrant with WhereYouGo app. It worked great and I'm looking forward to using it on some real cartridge/caches. Screen was a little dark in the Arizona mid-day sun, but it worked great!
