ok, herez the idea. But please note its now im on my first hello world in java. I wana create an application based on mobile technology namely android, that will track where you are actually, and by that you choose your destination upon a map, it will tell u the shortest route, or opt for using public bus, will tell your were, n how to travel to go there, with the approx bus schedule, and bus rates to b paid!

There is number of services providers you should your country for it. However given that this is student project I would concentrate just on capital city or your local area and see if you can find some providers, what sort of interface they provide so you know how to plug your application (meaning being easily able to send request with where and to location, time, and perhaps date plus number of passengers. Then being able to process results they sent you back). Example Transport for London

I don't think the people will prefer your application.

The reason is, it is already availabel in android market. Instead I suggest to look for some thing really new which is not available in market. Though I don't have much idea about what kind of such application but search for something.

This is student project and not professional paid to buy application, have mercy on the guy, beside how match do you know about Mauritius Android apps market that you say such think given that you are on the other side of globe in India? None since you are just signature spammer. So one thing for you to learn, your signature links are not visible to outside world only to registered users. Awareness effect, bellow 1%
