Hey there, a quick question about using Google Maps on the HTC Hero/G2.

When using the map to show driving directions/route, why doesn't your location get tracked as it does on the the HTC Touch HD or even the Iphone?

The blue dot showing your location stays in the same spot until you press 'my location' again...

Surely they couldn't have omitted this basic feature, or am I missing something?

I have mobile internet AND GPS on, as well as enabling my location to be determined in the settings menu via both.


EDIT: Please delete this topic as I have posted it on the mobile phone board...
Try to imagine nothing ever existed...
