Re: Google Maps Official (Java Version)

GPS functionality is working better and better for me. Makes no sense, but it seems like the more I use it, the faster the "My Location" option appears. I don't mean GPS signal lock...I mean just...

Re: N900 to HTC 8x (Windows Phone 8)

Re: Google Maps Official (Java Version)

Yes, very usable. I use this exclusively now. Other than the GPS issue, it's clearly better (faster, better UI, less buggy) than any of the other applications we have, including Ovi Maps.

Re: [N900] Google Maps

Looks like there's no GPS support that I can find, but otherwise, this is great! It runs extremely fast and is very usable though, which is a welcome change from our other mapping options.
