We should all be glad Legacy is not using the Apple Maps applet. :-)

Doug,

I assume that you are referring to the Bing Maps. Yes they can appear to be out 
in the ocean, but in my experience this is usually when the maps are at low 
resolution. As one homes in to the location the placing becomes more accurate.

There is one exception, however, when I first use the maps, and enter a British 
location which Bing does not recognise, then it puts me in the Atlantic Ocean 
west of Africa!
