Google on android has offline support. You are not going to get the instant
features, like traffic, but you still get navigation. I think whomever
wrote that doesn't know what they are talking about. What does iPad support
have to do with Android?
Here's the full quote...
*************
coming soon
David Pogue, in his review of Google's new Google Maps application for
iPhone and iPod touch, shares a couple of interesting tidbits from Google.
First, Google reportedly has admitted that its iOS Google Maps application
is better than its implementation on Android devices:
Google admits that it's even better than Google Maps for Android phones,
which has accommodated its evolving feature set mainly by piling on menus.
While the version for iOS takes much of the Android version's functionality,
it does still lack offline mode and full-tablet support. After noting the
lack of offline map saving and iPad support, Pogue shares that Google said
"that goodies like those will be coming soon."
***********
So the implementation is somehow better? OK...it's lacking offline maps and
tablet support in the iOS verson...not on the android side...
