Google Mobile just announced version 2.20 of their Google Maps software for BlackBerry today. The new version brings public transportation information from buses, trains, & ferries to your BlackBerry. Pretty cool stuff and the closest to a changelog we have ever gotten from Google Mobile!!!

I have secretly been wishing for transit support in maps for BB for a little while now. This news makes me quite happy. Thanks for reporting this!

I have a certain issue that I do not know if it is from google maps 2.2 or from my facebook app but both of them have a white letter with a white background which is impossible to see with unless u highlight certain parts. Could u guys plz tell me wat’s wrong? Thanks!

james he, I have that problem often with the theme I have been using lately. Perhaps it’s your theme that uses white-ish fonts, and most applications assume dark fonts.
