agree with you. me and my co-founder both have mortgages and families (actually he has kids, I dont), so this was like a trial to see how we would work with a heavy deadline and was a great learning experience. Atleast we got a chance to fail fast (on Android anyway). But wierdly enough, we noticied google transit went public - so atleast it vindicates the usefulness of our idea... we will now try to work on a real platform now - iphone or (shudder) nokia...

--- edit : by the way google transit wasnt there when we had started out, keeping eye on the labs page, we only noticed about a month before the deadline!
