If you haven't recently updated Google Maps for your BlackBerry, do. Earlier this week, Google bumped up its BlackBerry map app to version 3.2. As with Google Maps on Symbian Series 60 and Windows phones, Google's BlackBerry map app now supports layers.
In the layers submenu on the maps app, you'll find a list of layers you can turn on while mapping. These include Wikipedia entries, local transit lines, traffic, your personalized My Maps, and Google Latitude.
When accessing your My Maps listings, Google Maps for BlackBerry 3.2 prompts you to log in to your Google account before letting you load onto the mobile screen the saved routes you previously mapped on a desktop.
You can download Google Maps for BlackBerry 3.2 for free from m.google.com/maps.
