A Letter from Tim Cook on Maps

It would be nice if they approved Google's Map application for the time being as a great alternative. The lack of that option is what is holding me back in iOS 5...

They can't approve Google's map application, until google submit one.

Is there any indication there is a Maps app from Google awaiting approval? I thought the consensus was that Google is scrambling to build one now. This sounds like speculation.

The reports I've read indicate that Google are still working on their iOS Maps App so I don't believe there is anything for Apple to simply approve right now.
