Override onTouchEvent()

if (Action == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP){
if(!moveMap)
{
    Projection proj = myMapView.getProjection();
    GeoPoint loc = proj.fromPixels((int)arg0.getX(), (int)arg0.getY());

    //remove the last marker
    myMapView.getOverlays().remove(0);

    centerLocation(loc);
}

else if (Action == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE){
moveMap = true;
}
