This is cool!

I tried the iPhone version this morning, "walking" the virtual streets near my father-in-law's house. It's almost like being there -without the danger of being struck by a car. :-)

On thing: at least on the back streets near Ta'an Park, the registration of the images seems to be off by 10-20 feet. In many places, if you want to turn down a street, the google arrow is firmly pointing into someones home.
