Hey does anyone know how to view the buzz in Google maps? If I recall correctly there was a way to view like the top buzz that was going on in your area.

I think it is in the Layers options w/ traffic and satellite views.

The voice recognition has a hard time distinguishing between 'b' and 'v'. Other than that, Cool!

It's weird, the website shows that "search by voice" is not enabled for Windows... but from the comments it sounds like it works. Is the cab a hacked version? I guess the website can be outdated.

I downloaded from the website and t works great. It will uninstall old version first, then it seems to hang up and almost or maybe even freeze the first time out of the box. But after restarting it and letting gps get satellite fix, it works incredibly well, I have had absolutely no voice recognition issues yet. This is quick and works geat so far. I have installed on my TP2 and my wifes Q9 with 6.1 and it had same initial startup issue but ran great after that. Just make sure your enabled to find location .

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

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)

Tybalt39 04-22-2010 11:34 AM

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.
