Google today released Google Maps for Mobile as a Windows Mobile standalone application, not a Java midlet. It has GPS support, which is very cool for those with a GPS-enabled phone.
So far, in addition to this release, Google has released Google Maps as a Java midlet, and a Gmail app as a Java midlet. All of Google’s other mobile offerings are in the form of mobile-friendly websites, such as Google Reader Mobile and Google News Mobile.
I hope Google’s mobile development keeps picking up. I still haven’t been able to find a mobile RSS reader that synchronizes well for offline reading support.
