Google Maps for iPhone is now available

Google Maps for iPhone is now available. Just like its YouTube counterpart, Goggle Maps is not initially available/optimized for iPad. Of course, it is really hip to hate Apple these days. Remember the rumor about Google Maps might not be approved by Apple? The privileged and entitled jackasses were quick to blame Apple on that rumor.
