It changes the game significantly. It feels a bit like we're the first kids in town to have a shiny new motorcar, and the locals are saying "what's wrong with walking, it has so many other benefits too!"
Well, we like our shiny new motorcars, and we want to do as much as we can with them, as quickly as possible. The OSM coverage of Melbourne, for example, is particularly good and thanks to Nearmap could be "completed" within a few months. So yes, impatient because the end (or at least, one "end") is in sight. Steve
