Street view could be cool if it's available at your destination. Google needs to get voice recognition in there too besides just in the iPhone.

Works fine in Atlanta. Besides, wasn't street view available in the J2ME version of GMaps a while back?

Cool.
Do I need to uninstall the old version before I install the new one?

Cheers Masseur
I just installed it and had a little play, but it seems there's no street views on file for my area. I guess probably only major cities are included so far

^^^ I'm lucky then. I got caught up in a huge freeway slowdown while traveling. Google maps traffic info gave me enough info to where I could detour around it.
