Blackberry Maps is a big step back in the past. Usability is limited, and the features are reduced:
- the pointer which displays your location is in a dimmed green color. It is nearly impossible to locate it unless you search for it - makes it impossible to use while driving a car or a bike. The developer who did this should have once himself tried to use the application before releasing it.
- There are no folders where you can organize your favourite locations. Only one favourites folder, which fills up quickly, no differentiation between favourites an recent locations
- you cannot search the favourites
- No layers (which is the same as the favourites)
- no local search within the map
- no cell tower location option - if indoor, or, no GPS receiption you are doomed

I wonder, what additional features BBmaps might have, because, this looks like RIM has done a major rewrite of the application and, until now it was not possible to implement the previous functionality. These are all features which made sense and, there is no reason to remove them unless they made an agreement with whatever company which wants their mapping application more prominent on the blackberry platform.
