I never tried the french version but UK ver 2.0 is pretty good.
Give that a try.

I've had My Location via a Vodafone UK only link for a few weeks now running fine on my P990i.

Ah! Uninstalled 1.6.4 before installing the new version.
Followed the link on google.fr/gmm as before, now gives me an error: Can't read JAD file.
Same if I use google.co.uk/gmm .....
Anybody an idea why this happens??

If someone has the same problem as I have, here is the direct link:
http://www.google.co.uk/gmm/apps/v2.0.1/L1/gmaps-201-m2_ts_L1.jar

EDIT:
Installs but seems to missing something as it doesn't work.
I'm I the only one having this problem? Previous version installed like a charm...

EDIT2
Solved it, apparently Vodofane NL is blocking the file in someway.. The previous version was downloaded on Tmobile. Using Wlan fixed the problem. This version seems slower than 1.6.4 though.

Downloaded from Google.COM/gmm.....no support for touch screen

read this forum then tried French site google.fr/gmm......touch screen supported but everything is in French

Lastly tried google.co.uk/gsm...this works just as well as French version but is in English

So if you want touch screen support in English download from google.co.uk/gmm............this works just fine

No it doesn't.. which is too bad.

Dunno what they changed for the UIQ release compared to the 1.6.4 version. Seems stable though, just no "My Location" (and no compass-icon)

What versions of this are people running now?

The version I got from here:

www.google.com/gmm

.. doesn't allow using a stylus, and why the hell should we put up with the deficiencies of others phones!?

This version does:

www.google.fr/gmm

(but it's in French!)

I can't remember if I tried

www.google.co.uk/gmm

.. because I'm tired of uninstalling and installing now.

Also, why don't they offer / publish a way to download the application on your PC? Does anyone have reliable links for this?
