So far, there are no changes to the Maps application for the iPhone. There are some other features that include maps that are new to the 3.0 Firmware though. First, developers can now integrate Google Maps into their application. This is part of the new developer APIs in the 3.0 Software Developer Kit. This should help with some sweet weather or real estate apps.
Another really sweet feature that has to do with mapping is turn-by-turn directions. This is not a feature of the Maps app and also can’t be combined with the Google maps embed feature above. Developers will have to bring their own maps. This has to do with a licensing agreement with Google maps. This opens the door for apps like Tom Tom navigation apps.

I say pull google maps and give me a decent turn by turn gps program. Its sad that such a nice phone doesnt have a decent gps. Heck I can go get a free phone from AT&T with a decent gps program in it. Apple should be ashamed of them selves.
remember, no MMs, no sms forward
I can’t help but wonder how well the tomtom app continues to behave when a phone call comes in.
Hopefully the rumors are true about the new iPhone and the processor and ram will get a bump. Otherwise, you’re right…
haha seriously, the phone will probably spontaneously combust. i hope the processor is improved for the next gen.
Don’t forget the battery too!
