[apple-iphone] Re: Google Maps

 

I think it's good to have options. I so far haven't had any issues with Apple's map. I DL'd Google Maps as soon as it became available and like the voice option on it. My favorite map app is MotionX GPS Drive. But for a quick lookup of an address or business or the like the others are better and quicker. It depends on what my needs are as to which I use. But it's nice having more than one option.
