I just screwed around w/ Bing maps. Pretty slick stuff so far, but not a ton of street view content in my area. It'll get there though, and the controls and such are fluid and awesome.

The presentation was a amazing but, really, they stole Google's ideas bit for bit, added more accurate positioning and layers and called it a whole new product. I'm glad theres competition but if I were Google, I'd be getting my patent lawyers out.

So basically they did what Apple do and get lauded for? But instead you're complaining and saying that Google should sue.

Also Google wasn't even first, so maybe someone should sue Google.
