nice little app worked first time straight outta the box for me

[dkmadrid]

Great information, thanks for the post!

This is the best free map application that I've ever seen on a handheld! It's great.

I can't get the satilite pictures to work though. Do they work for anyone else?

[jw246]

The Sat Pics work for me but they are a bit dark on my 7100t.

Nice, much faster than Mobile Google Maps. However, it could use a better icon.

[jetspeedz]

great application... We really need to make a sticy with all the Free applications available like the utilities, this map app, askmenow , bb messenger and the games from mobile.blackberry

Sticky anyone

This is one of the coolest apps I have seen for the BB - definate wow factor, especially when showing off to non-BB people......

When the 7520 GPS option is available, this will be the Uber-app!!!!!!!!!

Definately needs a sexier icon, though.

I agree Matt the 7520 option will be real awesome

Downloaded it this morning. I have a 7100t in the UK running OS 3.8. It would not come OTA...I got a 907 invalid JAR error, and I also got the 302 error on testing the connection...but it works great.

[gr8wing]

Awesome..... can't wait for the GPS function for the 7520

Sorry this ones just working for me. Downloaded the BES version and installed. When I run a search it looks like it's searching (data up and down arrows) and then abruptly quits and does nothing further.

[MattLarson]

Maybe try the TCP/IP version?

OK....people in the office are looking at me funny because I'm swearing out loud; I can't get this to work!!!
I've tried to go to both links on my BB to download the application but both times I get the 907 error.
I've also tried to add the .axl file through the application loader but I get an error that no additional software designed for your handheld were found.
Now last time I got that error was because I hadn't added the right version of handheld system software to my pc, but it's definitely on there now.
I've got version 4.0.0.215 on my 7100.

What am I doing wrong?

Your not the only one!

I've got a 7100 as well and couldn't get it to work either. Is anyone else out there using this app sussessfully on a 7100g? I'm runing all of the latest software and I am using a BES.
