Google Maps Mobile Available Customized For Treo / Palm OS Cell Phones
I’ve been quite happy with my Google Maps Mobile running on my Samsung Blackjack.
And I was a Treo fan before my current cell phone. Now Google Maps is available with a custom version for the Palm OS / Treo smart phones.

You can download the free PRC file to install on the Treo from Google directly if you are running Palm 5 OS or higher.
Here’s the benefits that Google tauts for their GMM Treo edition:
- Real-time traffic — See where the congestion is, and estimate delays in over 30 major US metropolitan areas.
- Detailed directions — Your route is displayed on the map itself, together with step-by-step directions.
- Shorter startup time — The fastest access to the local information you want when you’re on the go.
- Stylus integration — Interactive, draggable maps let you zoom in or out and move in all directions with a tap or drag of the stylus.
