Google maps navigation coming to an iPhone near you |

HOLY CARP!!!

I was anticipating this. When I bought my new car, I did without the navigation system, though I wanted one. I figured my iPhone would fill the need. |

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool. I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss! - Cecil Lewis | |

Update: Google clarifies. Dancing in the streets (with turn by turn instructions) premature? http://www.macworld.com/article/150813/2010/04/google_gps_iphone.html |

I can already use Google maps on my iPhone,with the "get directions" and GPS feature, to get an interactive map. There is no voice, but it works pretty well if you know generally where you are headed |
