    This was just posted at the Google Mobile Help forum to a question I posted:

    Thom (Google Employee) says this answers the question:
    Hi all,

    The BlackBerry Storm uses a highly-customized GUI, which prevents Google Maps for mobile from being viewed in landscape mode. We're still working to integrate the app with this device, and we haven't yet put out a new release since the Storm has launched. I reallize you're all eager to use your internal GPS with Google Maps for mobile - and we're working to get an update soon. I can't give you a timeline as of today, but I'll update this group when I can give a more accurate picture.

    Best,
    Tom

    Mine does to. But Gmaps can pinpoint my exact location while it does get near, it still sits about a mile of course from where I am.

    Yea, landscape works for me also but gps is disabled or something. It is using the cell towers on mine cause the location is not very accurate.

    It's actually funny how they worded it... they weren't technically 'employees'


    Anyway, I hope it comes out soon! You can subscribe to the RSS feed on the forum so you can get notified when Thom responds
