    Latest GoogleEarth on Precise

    All I can say is WOW!

    If you are looking down from orbit and decide to zoom into location just put your mouse on the spot and roll your wheel forward. As you get close to the ground you transition smoothly into street view, just like you were a plane flaring for a landing. Really sweet.

    The new navigation paradigm makes moving down a road is street view as easy as falling off a log. IF you rotate your view to look at the buildings or houses on the facing the road, and then scroll your wheel up or down you move up or down the street. The stupid little arrows are gone. And, when scrolling down the street the street label appears, so you know which street you are on if you come to an intersection and point your mouse down a side street and roll the wheel.


    Did I say it was fast? I mean REALLY fast! And this Acer 7739 has only 128MB of video RAM.
