They may just not have updated the website yet. This is not a hacked version, this is an official version from Google.

Re: Google Maps 4.1.0 (Voice Search Capability)

To the folks who installed this, does it integrate with the phone contacts? In other words, if I want to get directions from my current location tothe address of a phone contact, will I have to enter the actual address? Or does it allow you to pull up the contact list and select the destination (contact) from there (like the bing application does)

Re: Google Maps 4.1.0 (Voice Search Capability)

As far as I can tell, when getting directions you must manually enter the address. No voice command. The work around for this is to use the voice activated search function first, then after the device finds the address use the directions function and the new address will be on your list of potential destinations.

I use Sprint Navigation for that. Google maps has a better search capability, but my voice must be bad for this. I asked for seafood and got orbits and Marriotts.
