I use it in my vacation recently and it is fantastic. When I'm indoors it uses triangulation, and when I'm outdoors it uses the GPS for better accuracy.

Google, you should be building more apps for the majority, not the couple of people who have an iPhone in the US, which is probably less than 2% of the global phone market.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15544935470400501957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1737808092791042537.post-32968956820770911722008-01-15T21:41:00.000-08:002008-01-15T21:41:00.000-08:00If you already set up your iPhone for Gmail MAP, d...If you already set up your iPhone for Gmail MAP, does the new native IMAP settings for the iPhone's Gmail provide any new benefits?
