iPhone 2.2 – Pedestrian and Transit Rider Friendly

I have become one of those iPhone users I used to hate. I can’t believe how I got through life before this. The new 2.2 update is available for download today. I walk and bus as much as possible. Given that, I can’t wait to try out these three new functions:

Google Street View – Street View takes you on a virtual walking tour: Navigate street-level photographs of places you’ve located in Maps.

Public Transit and Walking Directions – Get walking directions, find public transit schedules, check fares, and estimate your travel time.

Share Location – Tap the Share Location button to send an email that includes a Google Maps URL.

  Yeah, and I bet the G1 gets the upgrades before the iPhone!
