Get more accurate venue details from hcard data

I've been trying to do this myself, but I haven't come very far due to my non-existent Objective-C skills. Perhaps you can use something from the attached code. The function needs the xcal:location value from the events rss.

Sadly, the iPhone version of the Cocoa XML classes lack the XPath / XQuery functions, making XML / HTML parsing a chore :/ Perhaps the official SDK will have the full implementation of the XML classes.

A few people (me included) have asked Last.fm provide a real webservice for the events / venus data, but I'm not sure if they'll ever get around to implementing it.

I thought it was something like that, but when I found the XPath methods in the headers I had a little bit of hope. BTW: Somehow I have the feeling that the Last.fm folks will soon discover MobileScrobbler? as the by far most amazing way to use their service. Perhaps they will listen to you then.

However, those particular headers are from the MacOSX SDK, so that idea was kind of stupid. g
