[OSM-talk-be] Android App to show POI

The best app (IMHO) is OsmAnd.

You can create your own POI database and change the map rendering:
http://code.google.com/p/osmand/wiki/HowToArticles, you can also filter
those POI in searches.

If you just want generic POI, you can export and import "favourite places"
as a GPX file, and show on the map as a star symbol.

You do want the +-version, or the nightly builds of OsmAnd, the free
version in the market is quite aged.

Hope this helps.
