    As the title says, there's a huge upgrade in satellite imagery for many areas, including Ireland.

    Full details from Android Police

    Some really high quality - I can nearly see in my front window!

    When will maps come out of beta, or is that a more or less permanent thing.

    I hate this 45° lark. I don't think that's what proper mapping should be about. Google just seem to be caught up in what Bing have been doing for a while, and more recently, Apple. Hopefully, there's choice in what to view, going into the future.

    You don't have to look at the satellite imagery - just use the maps.

    Haven't updated Dun Laoghaire. Still at least 2/3 years old. I know 'cause I can see things in my back garden that are gone a long long time.
