Google Maps Street View now available for UK - Navigation soon to follow!?

[Laxe]

It would seem that they've just rolled out their new Street View for practically the whole of the UK. So my question is: How long do you think it'll be until they release Google Navigation for the UK??

Your poll should have a fifth option for the clueless people like me:

'What's Google Navigation?'

I swear I can't keep up with all this modern interweb based stuff...

Sorry to break it to you but we have had Google Street View in the UK for at least a couple of years. What happened today was they rolled out some more coverage.

Well yeah that was my point - though I admit I didn't make it very clear in the title. Before it was only a few big cities but now it's practically the whole of England - not 'some more coverage'. To me this was a big deal because it should mean that Google are at least part the way there to bringing their Navigation to the UK!

Yeah OK - a big roll out.

I hope so...
