[MonoTouch] Forward GeoCoding

[Wally McClure]

iOS 5 supports forward and reverse geocoding.  I've got a simple example of it somewhere, on some mac, somewhere, or I would post it.  iirc, its really simple to implement.

I don't think there is any platform API for forward geocoding.  You just need to make a call to Google's (or similar) geocoding service
