Google maps on your BlackberryYesterday

Google Maps for your mobile phone is the single most useful application for BlackBerry users that saves you from ever carrying a paper map again. With Google Maps on your BlackBerry, you can determine locations without having to use GPS, get transit and driving directions and obtain the addresses and phone numbers of local businesses. Additionally Google Maps for Mobile has also introduced walking directions, street views and business reviews.

Google Maps offers many interesting features that need little explanation. The My Location feature on Google Maps lets you see your current location on the map without using the GPS system. My Location also gives you driving directions on the map and it directly determines the starting point. This way you do not have to spend time entering your starting point to get directions. Moreover, this application also offers walking directions and transits including schedules for subway and bus travels and directions for foot travel. Google Maps offers users the option of finding the fastest route by displaying real-time traffic.
