Google Maps for mobile
Some of us have a great sense of direction, and others find href="http://www.google.com/gmm/gps.html?utm_source=en-et-blog&utm_medium=et&utm_source=en">
themselves, well, a little lost at times. For those in the latter
camp, you can thank Cingular for launching the

BlackBerry® 8800, the latest open GPS-enabled device from a
major U.S. carrier. That means that when you use
Google Maps for mobile
the map.
When you download Google Maps for mobile and fire it up, you'll
notice something quite unusual: a blinking blue dot showing you
exactly where you are! You can use your auto-detected location to
get directions and perform local searches without even entering
your location — instead of "pizza 94043", just enter
"pizza" — and we'll automatically know you want
pizza in the zip code "94043."
So here's a great big hats off to Cingular — this BlackBerry®
8800 with GPS is awesome!
