YAY!

That is all I can say. I have owned an iPhone 3G for about 5 months now and it has always frustrated me how thin the data is with regard to the iPhone Google Maps application that can be found on the phone.

The application itself is superb and its GPS is not bad when you are in a cell phone enriched area, however when you have main roads in Johannesburg (like Rivonia Rd) being referred to as the R55 or other such names it becomes near impossible to use for directions unless you know where you are going which defeats the purpose.

This article explains more, and my sources say Google plan to have completed the updates by July this year.
