The Blue dot stays, I assumed that meant the GPS was still on. I'll go out soon and try it, and see if it tracks after I uncheck the box.
However, I found another problem. In the last version, I could paste GPS coordinates to the "Get Directions" choice. My wife and I use SmartPhoneTracker, which allows either of us to sent a text string to the other's phone, and within a minute get a text back with GPS coordinates. We always could copy the coordinates and then paste it into both the "Start Point" and "End Point" under "Get Directions" and it would show the point the other person was at on Google Maps. That no longer works, as it won't allow a paste. No menu will pop up at all, including to paste in a physical address. Despite the "cool factor" of the street view, the loss of other more useful features makes me want to switch back until they get it fixed.
I can get it to work in a round-about way on Live Search, but I always liked doing it on Google better
