Google Earth For iPhone

It’s amazing. It uses multi-touch for navigation, which is as it should be.

I couldn’t work out how to tilt the view, until I accidentally tilted the iPhone and the whole image tilted. So sweet.

Have you given WritingPad a go on the iPhone? Don’t know how good it is (no iPhone to test) but its got a pretty cool typing technology that seems to be more convenient than the traditional method.

Thanks for the tip, Tim. WritingPad is amazing. It doesn’t feel like it should work but it does. Corner me at a FOCUS or Cathechist do sometime and you can have a go.

Thats great news! If this can input text for all apps in the future, then it really will make iPhone my ideal tech to bring when traveling. Now I just have to wait for the data rates to come down, international roaming to be cheap, and then I can justify buying this =)
