Is the version that you are downloading customised by your service provider so it can calculate your location using their phone mast database? I got Google Maps from Vodafone for my W960i and it has a Vodafone logo on start up.

@eske
It's the same for me too, maybe this means they're about to release a new version - hopefully one where 'my location' works for symbian phones regardless of network.

I don't know if this is your problem but the Google Maps downloaded from Vodafone has definitely been customised by Vodafone.

Thanks for the replies everyone,
in my stupidity i just assumed it's all gsm - it'll work on any gsm network.
but it's never that easy is it...
cool feature though ... if you can get it.

Looks like a UIQ version of Google Maps is out. Just downloaded it from
www.google.com/gmm on my P1i. Supports the "My Location" feature as well as touch screen. So far it's working great!

Now all they need to do is add BT gps support

(so far I'm liking it... my location works in the netherlands as well).
Oh yeah.. and kml-recording would be nice too
