    I bet the program would use too many system resources to run, which is why there is no mobile version. Besides you can get a satellite view with Google Maps.

    that is because you can't run multiple programs so there is literally NOTHING else running to use resources... i'm also sure it is nowhere near the desktop version.

    It's actually quite good on an iPod Touch.

    But you're right, hadn't thought of the multi-tasking issue.
