I am glad to see GPS support has been added to Google Maps for Mobile.
I have been using Google Maps on my phone for directions, and have been very happy with it. The only issues have been:
- No preloading: You walk through the directions by hitting next (3). Since the network is still slow, it takes awhile to load the map fragments, so if you have a bunch of small, quick directions you can get behind. This means that my human pattern is too: get directions, go through them all letting each step load the full image panes into the cache. I wish I could tell it to preload the entire route
- Know where I am: This has now been solved. Now there is no need to flip back and forth, and instead a more gradual experience will kick in which will be a lot easier to understand
