I have just used it in US, Canada, and Europe and it seems to work well.

There are *lots* of outlets and they are updated very frequently so the spec is that the map should be able to render a new outlet in the correct location on the world map based on address only. Anyone done this before and care to offer any suggestions? Right now I am thinking I will need to acquire a db of city/long/lat or else find a public webservice that accepts an international address and returns long/lat info. Then I'm thinking I'll just need a scale map in my swf that approximates to the long/lat grid so can place the new outlet in the right position. Any advice or tales of woe appreciated.
