Google's Mobile Map now includes Street View

Google's Mobile Map now includes Street View

Google has updated its Google Maps application for Mobile with built-in support for Street View . The updated application is available as a native download for BlackBerry and in a Java version compatible with many Java-enabled devices.

We have confirmed that BlackBerry users can visit Google to download version 2.3.1 of the Google Maps application. Apart from the addition of Street View and walking directions, the application's interface has remained the same. Google Mobile App and previous versions of the Google Map application do not presently prompt BlackBerry users that an update is available. As a bonus for users of the BlackBerry Bold, version 2.3.1 comes with an updated application icon with a higher resolution.

Visiting http://www.google.com/gmm  to download the Google Maps application should also work for many Java-enabled devices, including most devices running variants of Symbian and Windows Mobile, but iPhone users visiting the page will receive the message "Sorry, Google Maps does not work on your Apple iPhone".
