I still can't figure out how to get street view without actually searching first.

Initially I think the Google Map is the best product from Google. That was the reason why I moved from Yahoo to Google. Then I got used to it.

Later on I found that the map printing has big problem to keep it as 100% like before after they did some weird change and changed back.

I guess Google should listen to their customers more than what they think and want to do. Is the information on this topic will be ignored by Google? Most probably. Then they tends to lose customers sooner than later.

Just awful, I agree.

the New android Map app is a terrible piece of crap too

it's a damn shame that the new phones ship with the new version stock & you have to root to permanently uninstall it.
