seems like nothing much, maps seem to load a little faster, easier to scroll/pan thru the maps beacuse it loads faster...will play with it a little more tomorrow as I am driving around town a little (safely around town, not one to be staring at my phone aimlessly while driving)

Maybe it is something to do with new iPhone update or compatibility. Apple recently added this to its iPhones...

I prefer Microsoft Mobile Live Search. I find it far more powerful and far more useful. The step-by-step directions are far better as well. With Windows Mobile, you can speak your input, get gas prices near you, etc... It works flawlessly. Maybe Google will add this stuff to Maps someday.

Get it by going to wls.live.com on your WM phone or BB.


FYI - Google now has a "Mobile Search" app that embeds a search bar in the homescreen for certain phone OSes. My Windows Mobile Smartphone has an input bar right in the home screen that I can plug search strings into. It's badass.
