The iOS built-in Maps app is considered by many as the most comprehensive and nicest-looking Google Maps client in a mobile device. Yet, it lacks a feature many had been yearning for ever since the iPhone was first introduced: a speedometer.
Many of us appreciate, even rely upon the hardcore techies of the hacking community to deliver the tweaks and mods that circumvent the limitations and help us realize the true potential of the devices we own. Whether it's rooting the HTC Desire or jailbreaking the iPad 2 (or hacking the PS3, which can land you in a whole lot of trouble if you aren't careful), no sooner are the firmware versions or devices released than the developers are beavering away looking for exploits in the system.
Google's latest addition to its growing Maps product is Business Photos, which was launched today by Google's Vice President of Location and Maps, Marissa Mayer.
MacRumors is reporting that The Wall Street Journal has updated their previous story about Apple working on smaller iPhone, by adding new details. According to their report, the new smaller iPhone which Apple is rumored to be working on will sport an edge-to-edge touch-screen display, along with voice based navigation for Maps.
