    Great, but no so great

    its great!!---if you live i america that is, for me i had to search from the olympic stadium to my house, and all i saw was a blurry vision of my house and a few cars, blurry of course------well worth the 30 minutes i spent looking for a blurry house, isnt it?

    Can't get Aussie direct streets of your suburb

    It is a great idea but when you can not get your stree. You see your suburb but that is it ! It will not let you type in your street and suburb. It is all on America.It has to be more local free.

    Nothing in Australia

    I saw houses but i would have liked it to have streets and roads named on it. TO be able to type in my own suburb would be great. Even the popular places like Brisbane didn't turn up. I had to find it by zooming up. If it was concentrated on australia a bit more like US UK and Canada then i would like it.

    Awesome, one of the best programs out there!

    This is without a doubt one of the greatest programs out there. The image quality is often much higher than any other competing software (ie. NASA Worldwind). What makes Google Earth standout from the rest from my perspective is that it has high resolution images of Australia.
