Bangalore map on internet enabled phone

If you happen to have GPRS connection on your phone, or if you have home wlan connectivity to your home broadband connection with your phone having WLAN capability, you can try out namma Bengaluru maps from Google. Use your phone web browser to point to http://mobile.google.com, and then install useful utilities like mail, maps, etc. Maps is an interesting application, type location as Bangalore and you get good quality namma Bengaluru map at your hand. GPS enabled phones give more assistance than just map. Nokia has its own maps application for its GPS enabled phones. GPS on these devices is not that powerful, it takes a while to show the co-ordinates, but future phones could solve that issue. As of now, for outdoor (And slow moving), it is pretty useful.
