hebbet: I hope I came off sarcastically enough. I think you can say "Berlin" alone and people know what you're talking about.

When they will release the pictures, you will not see the roof of the car (because it will be unvisible) but you will see a flying German flag following the car ^^

What happens if you see one of these cars and follow it everywhere? I presume your own car would appear in every location...

Yesterday I saw one driving here in Amsterdam so I guess it wont take long before streetview will be available for the Netherlands as well!

I have some pics of the same model car and camera (but no google logo on the side) mapping in Glasgow Scotland a couple of weeks ago if they are of interest...

BTW, how can you walk on the windshield without failing through it? :-S
