A hacked version of Google Street View lands on Windows Mobile
Posted on Oct 10, 08 04:04 PM PDT
As a Windows Mobile user, you might wish that Google would provide an updated version of Google Maps with the Street View functionality. Well, you can wait on that front now that Google is competing directly with Microsoft, I'm afraid that they will try to push their own Android solution first and come back to Windows Mobile later. some would say that it's the behavior of a big, quasi-monopolistic company, but hey, it's the reality of business. So, KDKobes from xda-developers made the Blackberry Java-based Google Maps 2.3.1 app run on Windows Mobile (tested on AT&T Tilt/HTC Kaiser). The downside is that GPS/location won't work for now. KDKobes shared his work here. [Tiltmobility, xda, intomobile]
