I love the look (and idea) of it. Is there any reason it only runs on
iOS4?

Subject: [MCG] Historical Maps IPhone App
Hello members
A small JISC grant has enabled a group of us to give public access to
historical maps from the National Library of Scotland and Landmark (OS
maps).
The maps centre around Edinburgh but there is also a map from 1890 for
London.
It's a free app for the iPhone at the moment and if we have enough
success we're hoping to encourage Landmark to release the maps for the
entire UK.
We'd appreciate any thoughts or comments from the museum group.
You can read more here:

Or download here:

It's proving enjoyable and popular to walk old streets, guided by the
blue dot on the iPhone.
