Google Maps on your Windows Mobile Device

  • Real-time traffic conditions
    See where the congestion is, and estimate delays in over 30 major US metropolitan areas.

  • Favorite places and routes
    Save time (and avoid sore thumbs) by keeping a list of residential or business locations, and driving routes.

  • Insta-KB-o-meter
    Monitor your data consumption in real-time — just look to the top right portion of your phone screen while using Google Maps.

  • Enhanced business info
    After selecting a particular business, select the "Details" tab for hours of operation, hotel amenities, and more.

  • BlackBerry support
    Just visit www.google.com/gmm on your BlackBerry's web browser, and you're all set to go.

It's a big improvement for the kaiser (Tytn II) - the old version used to timeout ridiculously early before the GPS could get a lock, but it's working perfectly now.

hi masseur,

thanks for the pointer

interestingly, i used a local map, called nusamap for my gps navigator, strangely, with google map, gps location locked much quicker than my local navigator. has this got something to do with google maps connected to internet at the same time?

no doubt.

I use google maps and gps on my HP hw6965. Google maps is way better imho than livesearch, also better interface. The livesearch software is a half-arsed effort by MS I'm afraid to say...
