For contrast, Google announced ahead of Apple's developer conference that it offers public transportation directions for over 18,000 cities.Follow our WWDC 2015 live blog!http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/470c57ab/sc/28/mf.gifhttp://da.feedsportal.com/r/231049224050/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/470c57ab/sc/28/rc/1/rc.imghttp://da.feedsportal.com/r/231049224050/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/470c57ab/sc/28/rc/2/rc.imghttp://da.feedsportal.com/r/231049224050/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/470c57ab/sc/28/rc/3/rc.imghttp://da.feedsportal.com/r/231049224050/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/470c57ab/sc/28/a2.imghttp://pi.feedsportal.com/r/231049224050/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/470c57ab/sc/28/a2t.imghttp://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/software-news/~4/8ClZefTaDLA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
