Google maps now offers street view on java powered and Blackberry mobile devices. Street View can be launched from any address and if Google has photos in their database from that location, maps will display the street view for the address. Street View can be overlaid on the map or in full screen and also be rotated to see more of the surroundings and can be used with step by step directions.

A few other new features announced include business reviews, walking directions and changes to My Location for more accurate triangulation of the location using cell towers.
