pocketgpsworld.com Google have launched their Google Maps service for UK users. Google allows you to search for places, Points Of Interest and retrieve full street level maps from http://maps.google.co.uk . The interface is superbly simply and maps load quickly plus the maps can be dragged around using the mouse and zoomed in/out.

Google appear to be using a mix of Navteq and TeleAtlas data according to the copyright information, certainly browsing my local area reveals map errors common to TeleAtlas map data that have long since been fixed in Navteq data.
