cool! this would be handy on my N900. using the cursor-mode is not very fast or friendly way to use maps.google.com

'World' may not be used widely. Perhaps a lower zoom level would be a more beneficial use of space.

I would love to see the search feature enhanced.
- directions don't seem to be supported. this could be searched as 'directions:new york city to albany, new york' ?
- Also, I could only search for valid-addresses or cities but not businesses e.g. holiday inn, london.
