Google Maps now has real-time traffic displayed and will re-route you if it can:

It's showing some traffic hotspots in London, so it's a start.

I'm looking for a free MP3 Alarm clock? Any good ones?

has anyone mentioned that there should be an overclockers app to browse the store? Or is anyone working on one?

Kaloer Clock is one of the best. You can play phone sounds or any MP3 from your collection as your alarm tone

I use Alarm Clock Plus to load Pandora, it's pretty cool, think there's an MP3 option there too it's pretty well featured

There already is, it's called Dolphin/Firefox/Opera... I really don't get this idea that every single website you visit needs a custom app!

To be fair that happened to me on my Tom-Tom. Obviously I didn't drive down it, but by god it tried to make me!

Agreed.

The correct app for browsing OcUK is called Dolphin Mini 2.0

Gentle Alarm is pretty good IMO

Just installed N64Oid - It's awesome! Not all games play perfectly, and some not at all, but most run okay. Just been having a play on Mario Kart64, that takes me back!
