Google MapsTM

You can use Google Maps to find your current location; to view real-time traffic conditions; to get detailed directions by foot, public transportation, bicycle, or car; and to navigate by using spoken, turn-by-turn driving instructions using the Google Maps Navigation (beta) service. You can search on a street map or a satellite image to locate an address or a landmark, and you can view some locations as if you were strolling down the street. If you join Google Latitude, you can view your friends’ locations on your maps and share your location and other information with them. There are some locations that Maps does not have information about.

To launch the Google Maps application and view your location:

1.Press > > Maps

2.Press > My Location.

The map centers on a blue arrow that indicates your location. A blue circle around the dot indicates that your actual location is within the circle.

To get an address and additional information for a location:

Touch and hold a location on the map. A balloon with the address and a thumbnail from Street View (if available) opens over the location.

Tap the balloon to access additional options.

To utilize Google Maps:

1.Press > > Maps

If prompted, read the What’s new message and tap OK.

2.Tap the magnification icons to zoom in or out of the current map view.
