Anyone using Google Maps for directions should beware. Google does not use either Navteq or Tele Atlas for Mapping Data. Google uses it's own Map Data that's outdated and incorrect. Following Google Maps will mislead you and almost always send you the long way around to your location.
Don't believe me, then compare the results from Mapquest, Yahoo Maps, or your Car GPS and you will see some amazingly terrible results from Google Maps. Also, check out the internet for various reviews of Google Maps. Hopefully, Google will partner with either Navteq or Tele Atlas in the future in order to be a viable market alternative.
Those excited and waiting for Android 2.1 and spoken directions, will only be greatly disappointed with Google Maps.
