Tourality: Multiplayer outdoor Java ME cell phone game

If you ever wanted to look as silly as possible with your Java ME tech-enabled cell phone, running around city streets staring intently at your mobile device, like a crazed treasure hunter, no need to try to dress up like Nicolas Cage from the movie, National Treasure. Play Tourality instead!

See:

Mobile Outdoor Game

Here's a quote: 

 Equipped with a PHONE and GPS (integrated 
 or as an external Bluetooth device) the 
 player's task is to reach predefined 
 geographic spots as fast as possible and 
 before opponents.  While the players are 
 on their way - by foot, by bike or any 
 other means they like - their real 
 position is tracked by the GPS.
And, if you get a bunch of speeding tickets, don't blame Java ME technology. Blame your car or motorcycle for not being fast enough to reach the game goal!

The link "Mobile Outdoor Game" from above seems to be broken. Here is one that is working: http://openpr.com/news/45528/Tourality-move-your-mobile-New-Version-of-the-Freeware-Multiplayer-GPS-Game-for-Mobile-Phones-released.html
Looking forward to seeing "crazed treasure hunters" in my city! I'll probably join them! ;)
