Would you guys think that Google will allow us to download the map of the "countries". For those who travels it will be very annoying to have to remain connected to internet without data plan. And even beside that, the coverage is not that fluid everywhere.
Google alreay has the map. All what is left to provide and downloading option!

All maps are downloaded on the fly so will need to be connected to data to work. The app would just be too massive to include all the maps preinstalled. Works a treat on my Nexus with no reboot required.
Would have been nice for Google to send a notification of some kind with the update to tell us about it rather than just stumbling across it though.

Not ALL Android phones...
Lets not forget the poor old HTC Hero, still having to make do with Android v1.5, but the navigation requires v1.6.

What happened to Google's "don't be evil" saying and all there products are "open source" for the general public. Monopolising it to their own OS, when it is more than capable of running on a Symbian, Mac OS or Maemo device. Interesting.
