Requirement : a GPS enabled device
Street View
WM version of Google Maps did not have “Street View” feature like the one that is going to come out on the android ( video here ). But with the following hack we can get some of the cool features on Street view on Windows Mobile devices. Some limitations are no GPS support or My Location.
Live Search/Google Maps Update
Live Search was updated to v3.5.8198.0 get if from wls.live.com
Google Maps to v2.2.0.20 which can be downloaded from google
The freeware Phonetracker Locator transforms a Windows Mobile 5.0 / WM6 PPC Phone with built in GPS receiver or external Bluetooth GPS receiver into a GPS/GSM tracking device.
Received SMS are checked for location statements by Phonetracker4Free and transferred to Google Maps Mobile independently. Google Maps Mobile displays the location on a map or by satellite images, and takes over the routing to the destination if necessary. To request a position report only send the text message *PHONETRACKER* Request to the mobile phone where Phonetracker Locator is running.
Google Maps need no introduction, they have released a new version with some new features like star-ratings for businesses, faster search results, and user-generated content will now surface in your search results.
Thats not all as per the Google Blog you can use the feature simply by going in to Directions from the main menu and you’ll see a second tab labeled Transit (or Public Transport), where you can request a route using only public transportation. You’ll receive a number of alternatives that take you (car-free) to your destination. Transit directions are available on Google Maps in more than 50 cities.
Take the power of Google Maps with you on your mobile phone. This is by far one of the best application for the PocketPC.
