Hi Dotan Cohen!

The only tool that I know that could do the kind of image manipulation
you require is a GIMP plug in (Perl, Python, or Script-Fu (Scheme)).
You would need to make a jig which would allow you to estimate the
distortion at all latitudes and from that derive an equation or table
the result of which is a linear estimation of the panorama.  From
there you would need your own applet to view the results.

Perhaps you can help to connect the company with the OSS community to
make a good result.

May cooperation reign!

Tod
