Does anyone know how to enable street view option in bing map? If not, then is there any other software which can do so?

Hi, can anyone who has a streak please confirm the latest ver. of maps app? I am running 4.5.1 on a 1.6 (4399 build) version streak.
Also, is there anyway I can save maps to my sd card? I have no 3g in the country n edge is ridiculously slow..

Google Maps to Device
Check out Orux Maps. It will allow you to select and download a google map to your phone for use with GPS when no cell signal is available. I've used it hiking with a google terrain mapo and it works great!
is the compass in google maps wrong in portrait for anyone else? its correct in landscape. its just off my 180 degrees when i rotate the phone.
Do you really need a working internet connection/Wifi in order for a navigation application to work properly?
No copilot and many others have onboard maps

IGO uses no internet/wifi but you need to download maps. PM me if you want a link.
For some reason I tried to use the new download maps feature and downloaded the maps but when I turn data off and try to use navigation it doesn't work am I doing something wrong?

A quote
"This download stores only the base map tiles and the landmarks on the map, so you still need a data connection to see satellite view and 3D buildings, search for Places and get directions."
You will have to manually look at the map. It looks like turn by turn doesn't work.
Even with all the tiles downloaded, Maps and Navigation still query the server to find routes. There is a long-running search to find ways to get Nav to work offline. So far, the best people can do is get map tiles offline, and even that is hit-or-miss.
Other offline navigation programs are out there, but if you're like me, you just want Google Nav to work with no connection.
Yeah I guess I will download navigon again it just takes up too much storage space

Don't you think Google map tiles would take up just as much space? There are some programs that let you download only the tiles and detail that you want (Locus Maps, for example).
I really like this new feature, lots of potential. One big disappointment is they limit you to 10 tiles. I'm not sure hire big the tiles are exactly,b it would take 5-6 to get all of Louisville... but I can only download 10?
As soon as I saw this I imagined filling up several of my sd cards with maps of my state.
I always wanted to have those maps on my sd card.... Im on mikg 2.2 n i don see any options to download any maps.... What rom r u on ?

h well it doesn't, apps haven't started to filter in to Win 8 yet given its a beta still, but I suspect once we start hitting the RCs we will see the app store getting larger with such apps, just now you need to remember that there are not many Win 7 tablets with GPS so demand is not high for your needs just yet.
Try using google earth - it works with GPS
I know this is a stretch but why not use the metro bing maps app. It does support location services.

If sign into latitude, will locate you
I guess this is phones in general, but I have a G2 atm so asking here. I've read multiple times in the past you don't need a data connection for GPS to work on map apps and such. I was out of service completely last night and I tried using Google maps but it said cannot connect to data, so I couldn't even use it. I'm just confused as I didn't know you needed data to use GPS.

You need data to populate the maps.

You either need a navigation app or download from Google maps for offline use.

There's no offline navigation with Google Maps. You can pre-load the maps, but it won't tell you where to turn.
TomTom works while in airplane mode with driving navigation directions though. That's what I used in Canada last week.
