GOOGLE MAPS AND OTHERS AT YOUR FINGERS...
Mobile GMaps is a FREE application that displays Google Maps, Yahoo! Maps, Windows Live Local (MSN Virtual Earth) and Ask.com Maps and satellite imagery on Symbian and Java J2ME-enabled mobile phones, PDAs and other devices.
MGMaps can connect to a GPS receiver over bluetooth or use internal GPS features on some phones in order to automatically display the map for your current position.
NEW IN v1.30.x SERIES
* MGMaps supports "dynamic" KML files. You can now load any KML file, and if it contains a NetworkLink section the places will be displayed and updated dynamically as you move the map.
* The new version includes the latest satellite imagery from Google Maps.
* Bug fixes and improvements in favorites, GPS, hybrid mode features.
* Supports Hybrid mode for Google, Yahoo and Ask.com maps! Get it here.

* Map Caching — that's right, it was finally fixed! You can now specify the size of the memory cache in kilobytes (Settings/Browsing), as a number between 128 and 4096 (4MB).
* Map scrolling is faster, "enhanced" scrolling is enabled by default (you can disable it in Settings/Browsing).
* Bookmarks were renamed to Favorites.
* Markers options were removed, they are now named places and can be of two types: either user-set places (they are actually favorites), or server-set places (search results, KML data, WikiMapia places, ...).
* Search History was added, as its name says it allows you to review your latest 20 searches and run again any of them.
* The Go To option opens a simple form that allows you to quickly move the map to any coordinates. Tip: you can also do that with the Search feature, just search for the desired coordinates in the format: 45.67N 8.9E, or maybe +45°40'12", +8°54'.
* The auto-start option was removed and the application displays the welcome screen only the first time it is run.
* The low memory option was removed, because of the different caching code, but it may get re-added if requested or needed.
