Google has released a new version of Maps for Mobile with the aforementioned functionality, but it only applies to the Storm and not the other models, due to Verizon’s refusal to approve transceiver access to other BlackBerry devices in the lineup despite having the same GPS hardware as the Storm.
The new version of Maps for Mobile also adds Latitude access for real-time geo-location. The download is available now from this location.
VZW is still playing their same old protectionist games. Promise to open things up but remain closed tighter than the current credit market.
American corporate greed makes me sick.
