What's that view in the Google maps image you posted skyfall? I can't see a view like it.

V4NT0M · 16 Dec 2010 at 19:43

It's not a view, switch off all other views and then drag both fingers down, you also have to be zoomed in quite a bit and finally have to be looking somewhere in america as it doesn't seem anywhere in the uk is 3d yet.

I've done to two finger swipe and it gives a 3d view in London without the buildings. If you want that view go to New York. They get that view in the US.

It's actually 1.5GB on the Desire HD, I have a fair few apps installed and still have 1GB free

apps2sd just isn't needed on the Desire HD.

Looks like it is only US cities for the launch.

Even my Nexus One has pathetic internal storage for a supposed "dev phone"

. Need to get round to rooting it (have rooted my girlfriends phone but not my own!), I've filled up the small space on A2SD given by the stock ROM.

I know this is for Android apps, but check this iPhone app out. Would be nice to see it on Android.

Mmm, interesting. Will have to take a look. The iPhone app looks pretty cool though.
