I imagine everyone already knows this but rather than use multimap or routeplanner or even AA, RAC.
i typed the address of somewhere i needed to get to straight into google then hit 'I'm feeling lucky' Google maps beta loaded up and found the place with directions and an option to see a satelite image or a hybrid cross ref.
Well i was impressed anyway. I'll prove or disprove the program tomorrow morning when i get lost as usual..lol

At about 3000 ft at an elavation of about 30 degrees its brilliant. you can type your place into in and it scans round the map to find it automatically.

Punch up Google then search Google earth.
Download it then in the place box type Berkshire or Hampshire, it'll give you a satelite view at about 4000 ft Mate.
fuggin brilliant it is.
