Saw this on the news last night... It pretty cool to be able to swoop down and see things in 3D. Only 15 or so of the larger US cities are fully 3D modeled, currently but they hope to have 1500 worldwide by the end of next year. Their long term goal is to have street level 3D imagery where you could be able to go "into a store" browse their store shelves virtually and make purchases. Life is turning into one big video game...
