    They can be accessed on wifi or edge, they are not stored on your phone.
    It's counts as data (internet).

    quick question about google maps on the iphone (sorry to threadjack) but how good is it in terms of displaying the traffic on the roads to your destination?

    very good, it shows live traffic.
    so green is less traffic, red is heavy traffic. (just push the little car button)
    and it maps out all the turns and stuff ...
    Best Regards

    Default Update Google Maps sources

    Is there any way to update the google source for the mobile app?

    Latin America has recently appeared on maps.google.com , but it doesn't show up on the iPhone.

    I've tested it on the BlackBerry app and it doesn't show up either.

    I guess there's a specific source for mobile devices, but I thought maybe this can be updated (or pulled from other source).

    Hope someone has an clue on this... Maps app doesn't make that much sense when your country is not registered
