Hi,

Isn't that Ajax API is meant for web development ?

If I want to develop an application on mobile phone for example,  I
can't use ajax api, or can I ?

Google also provide static maps which can be request by direct http
POST.
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/staticmaps/
The static maps is pretty straight forward to use on device such as
mobile. So I just wonder if static maps support nearby searching ?

Regards
