Much of the world is still not present.
E.g. The map for [link|http://maps.google.com/maps?q=london,+england&spn=0.074268,0.131836&hl=en|London] works, but the satellite picture of the city is still absent.
And it still doesn't know where Paris, France is.
AFAIK, it's been this way since the beta was announced - it's still extremely heavily US-centric. Have you heard/read differently?
Thanks.
Cheers,
Scott.
