Okay, 28 min to go now, can't wait! Yay! Google Street View for my iPod Touch!! w00t!

Erm.... some of the first page... Why?

Google Street View isn't on the iPod touch...

I'm in Melbourne too and it took about 2 minutes... Change ISP!
 
Not being a smartass or anything, but how are walking directions any different than driving directions? Does it give your short cuts like "walk into dead-end and hop fence on left. Ignore dog barking and just run!"?


Because there are no one ways when you walk.
 
i must say over all i am very impressed with this update. It feels like the iPhone should have felt! Fairly snappy, and even more cool features! I really like the google bar ontop of the safari window to.
 
It seems also that the walking and public transportation directions are also absent from the Touch?

Also, the backspace still sticks when typing something into a webpage?

Can anyone else confirm this?

disappointed to say the least.
 
ive got 67 minutes remaining for my download... have been going at it for about 20 mins already
 
My question is why...

...and did any other Touch users notice that the walking directions and local transportation things do not work either?

Answer the question with another question.

Did you read the release notes?

It clearly stated that the products compatible with the update are the iPhone, and the iPhone 3G, NOT the iPod Touch.

BL.
 
It seems Emoji is only working with a Softbank email account - why is there this limitation?

Shouldn't these work with GMail and in other countries?
 
Because there are no one ways when you walk.

also it shouldn't route you on the freeway in walk mode. Eventually it will probably utilize city bike paths and such.

My itunes will not download 2.2! I've clicked the check for new software button 20 times and it still says that 2.1 is the latest firmware avail!
 
Street View alone would make me happy to PAY for this upgrade :)

I love Street View on my desktop Mac--I can explore my town and never have to leave the house.

And now, with iPhone Street View, I can do the same thing and never have to go home :)
 
as do i, but it was there before. i had the progress bar everytime i update to a new firmware

Ah, I see. The progress bar was just new to me. I bought my iPhone with 2.1 on it.....

However, I did to a factory restore and didn't notice it then.
