Google has updated its Maps app for Android
-- perhaps the most vital, central app in the platform outside of
the dialer itself -- and fortunately for G1, Dream, and Magic users
around the world, they've made the update available through the
Android Market. That's a really big deal and a major departure from
basically every other mobile platform, because it means that folks
won't be waiting for carriers and manufacturers to get off their
rumps and release firmware updates -- instead, integrated
components of the operating system can be pushed out through the
Market just like any other app you'd install. The new version's a
doozy, too, featuring voice search, more comprehensive support for
Latitude,
detailed business information, and pedestrian / mass transit
navigation, arguably making the Android version of Maps the most
robust on any phone. Seeing how Android is Google's own, seems
fitting, doesn't it?
