Google just released an update to their Maps app for Android, bringing it to version 4.4. So far Google has bee releasing a fairly substantial update to this app every month for the past several months.

In this video mate from Pocketnow test three different CPU platforms for smartphones: the Qualcomm Snapdragon (on the Nexus One), the Samsung Humminbird (on the AT&T Captivate), and the TI OMAP (on the Motorola Droid X).

It wasn’t long ago that Cyanogen and his team got Android 2.1 working on the G1 (video) — a feat that many said couldn’t be done.
Now they’ve gone and proven everyone wrong again: Froyo (Android 2.2) can run on the G1 — and run well.
Of course, getting this up and running isn’t for the faint of heart, and it’s not yet “fully cooked” — it’s still a release candidate (more stable than alpha and beta ROMs, but still with some rough-edges). Come take a look at the first Android phone running the latest Android OS!
