Google has launched the UK-specific version of its popular Java mobile app – Google Maps mobile. Users in Britain can now see Tube stations, and use the local search. If you have a Java-enabled handset (almost all new phones support Java), you can download the UK version of Google Maps mobile from google.co.uk/gmm.
In the other news, Google finally added support for GPS to the latest version (v1.5.1) of Google Maps mobile. In the application press “0” to quickly pin-point your location with a blue dot. Originally, Google promoted this feature as being exclusive for the Helio Drift. Now they’ve quietly released an update that should work on all major platforms. (via: Crave, WebWorkerDaily)
