BlackBerry 8800, one of the feature-packed BlackBerry mobile phones, with it QWERTY keypad and GPS, has another feature to boast of - Google Maps for Mobile.

Downloading Google Maps for Mobile will inform you automatically where your location is when you check your BlackBerry 8800 smartphone.

When you download Google Maps for mobile and fire it up, you’ll notice something quite unusual: a blinking blue dot showing you exactly where you are! You can use your auto-detected location to get directions and perform local searches without even entering your location — instead of “pizza 94043″, just enter “pizza” — and we’ll automatically know you want pizza in the zip code “94043.”

When will Nokia smartphones such as the e61i have the same feature?
