Speaking of not enough zoom levels, locations in the more northern and more
southern latitudes actually have an "extra" zoom level. Because of the
Mercartor projection, locations near 60 degree latitude (north or south)
have twice the linear scale as locations on the equator for the same zoom

have you ever seen a monochromatic version of the current logo
One thing that has frustrated me with the current tiling system is that most
POIs are only visible if you zoom in all the way, and can only see an area 50
meters or so across. This rather limits their usefulness. It would also help
if you could click on a POI, or hover your mouse above it, and
