Just downloaded an update for the Google Earth app for iPhone that makes it universal for iPad. Very frickin' cool!

I haven't used GE on a mobile device before. Does anyone know how you switch to street view, or is that not available in GE? I lap found the animations when switching between locations to be herby jerky....
 
Tried it out this morning. Wasn't too impressed with the response time to my rotate/zoom/perspective gestures. Very juddery!

Same problem, I even received the low memory message, I rebooted and it was a little better. I suspect it will be like some of those apps that need more than 256 MB to work properly.

I was using my home wifi earlier - just tried it again on 3G and it was a lot smoother. 😕
 
I just tried it. No stuttering, no jitters... smooth panning and zooming. Very impressive IMO. Maybe I missed it but I couldn't find a way to bookmark locations.
