Google TV

For Google TV, the first screen showing the MapView with the user's current location is not appropriate because Google TV devices are stationary. A better opening screen for "Panoramio for Google TV" is a display of pictures for the user's current location (set during the initial device setup). This screen also includes controls for browsing the pictures from cool places in the world and for searching for pictures by location.

A Google TV display has landscape orientation, so it has more horizontal screen space than vertical space. For this orientation, a better layout than ListView is GridView. While the ListView layout is good for a small, portrait-oriented screens, the GridView layout is better for displaying multiple columns of images across the display's width. GridView also offers flexible column sizes to fit different TV screen sizes.
