Apple Maps - Web Version?

Apple maps is designed with GPS in mind and since computers aren't equipped with that chip it wouldn't make sense.

 

Some computers are. But they can make a Mac with a GPS chip maybe? That would be pretty cool however it wouldn't be necessary

 

Apple does support something like Location Services on recent versions of OS X.

Note that Find My Mac will identify the geographic location of the registered computer. I assume Apple is using WiFi triangulation for this since there are no Macs with built-in GPS chips.

I think iPhone on OS X is using Apple Maps. At some point, Apple will probably want to have a Maps website, and stop pointing to Google Maps when mapping addresses from the Address Book, whatever.

However, the key is to get this thing properly working on iOS devices. There are a lot more iPhones and iPads sold than Macs.

 

iPhoto still uses google maps on the desktop. I'm sure they will change this quickly to use their own maps.

 

One would think, with laptops leading in sales and how cheap GPS chips can be purchased for, that they would have them (if only for Find My Mac/ Friends).

 

Apple doesn't like web services.
