i agree. the maps app built-in is pretty horrible and useful. also the red dot which represents me blinks once in 2 mins. so its useless
but google maps yes. def yes

Thanks for the posts and bumping this thread, I noticed that I recently started getting emails from google again notifying me that a new post had been added.
Hopefully we'll get some kind of App from them.

the built in maps are good for maps (except the long start up time) but i need an app that will tell me where things are, like nearest gas station, etc.

I found it does most the google map does on my 5800, except no traffic information and favorites

I installed the location plugin for microb and then hit up google maps mobile and it works great for finding things around me. Can also be used for directions, problem is map can be manually scrolled.
EDIT: Turns out it can be manually scrolled. Just needed to use the hover cursor.
