okay,

i have added a map from madrid to the server. try it now.
with your n95/8gb keep in mind:
- If you have aktivated Bluetooth GPS in the mobile and no external Bluetooth GPS is available/in_range GPS will not get a lock work even if buildin GPS is checked in options menu. (possible phone bug)
- using car4car.jar on a N95 (JSR179) phone you have 2 opetions to connect to GPS. Out Of The Box (jsr179) or through config menu with external Bluetooth GPS. I think the GPS has to be paired with the phone prior to this. dont know exactly.

please tell me if you can get a gps lock under normal conditions and if the map renders properly.

cheers
michael
