You are probably wondering why I changed the Xspot menu to native.  It has to do with how MapView functions as I can grab user taps via HitTestResult and can enable other features. it goes back to what first-step intent triggers that WebKit WebView recognizes as URLS.

There are 3; mailto:, geo:, and phone urls.  This means any geo: url whether by geoRSS such as a brightkite feed or etc will trigger the MapView.  Thus there was no good way to have WebView and MapView in one gigantic acticity and display and so I separated into two activities.
