Dan Moren has been doing some traveling. Currently in India, he writes about his experiences living on the road with Apple tech.
For example:
I’ve found Apple Maps to be virtually useless in India. Yes, I can get a map overview or satellite imagery, but directions and transit information are nonexistent. Building databases of all that information is challenging, to be sure, and it often means working with a lot of partners. But not being able to get simple walking directions to a nearby restaurant is kind of a nonstarter, so I’ve been using Google Maps, which works much better.
Not the first time I’ve heard this complaint. Interesting post.
