Is there support for Google Maps & Latitude on the N9 yet? Over the past year, Latitude in particular (along with Maps of course before that) has become something I'm really into, & is something I hope is on the N9. Does anyone here know if there is support for it?

CloudGPS works on N9 and can use Google Maps.
I don't know about Latitude yet.

We had some discussion of Latitude and there's even some code floating about to perform Latitude updates.
E.g. http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=38542

I personally think this updater is better (tried them both). However what I'd really like is an implementation like you have with the N900, which only updates when it detects a change in position, which saves battery life. I seem to remember having 1 minute updates on the N900 without adverse effects. Still on the N9 I can have 10 minute updates without big problems.
The real issue though is checking google latitude on the N9. I can't open the Google Latitude on the built in browser, nor on Opera or Firefox. Anyone know of a way to check my friends' location using the N9?

With the N900 it was fine because you had basically a desktop-class browser, complete with mouse pointer when you needed it. Google latitude was no problemo on that machine.

OK, so Google has a public API for Google Latitude. Come on coders, surely some one of you can whip up an app for the N9 to show locations of your friends!

Has anything changed with this lately? In the June of this year, I'll be in the market for a high end phone & I became acquainted with Android in recent months, including purchasing a couple apps (one of which is a Latitude updater). Foursquare is another thing I'm into now, and I hope an N9 app's available that does allow me to continue getting points, badges, & mayorships.
