iPhone GPS and Google Mobile Search

June 9th, 2008 by admin

As widely suspected Apple announces GPS support in the new iPhone according to MacRumors.  The only saving grace in this is that Google Maps still really doesn’t do mobile search particularly well.  For example, I was recently looking for a nearby FedEx branch.  The nearest one to me turned out to only do commercial work.  I was also recently in NYC looking for the Nespresso outlet.  I got the corporate headquarters.  I wonder if Google will ever really care to make this more accurate.  Certainly having GPS on the iPhone is going to push them to make it better.
