Hi, has anyone successfully downloaded and run google maps on their omnia? I just got mine on VodafoneUK and it didn't come preinstalled.

When i tried, it recognised my phone as a Samsung and downloaded the Java version which wasn't any good and crashed on the T&C's screen.

I then manually downloaded the WM version which loads fine but then says " This programme requires a data connection". The 3G data connection is working fine as I can browse the web etc etc.

Any ideas?
