Default Huge INDIA update for Google Earth - A lil update

hey
Didn't anyone notice? In the last google eaarth databse update 10+ cities have been added to high resolution.!! Which means if live in one of those cities you have a great time!!.
Also I notice my Home in Delhi has got an even higher resolution!! and generally the images are brighter and definitely newer!!
Don't waste your time open GE right Now and Njoy!

Cities upgraded: chandigarh, bhopal, Indore, Ahmedabad, vadodara, near surat, near nashik, Bhavnagar, a bit of kolkata, and many patches in gujarat.
There are more, I haven't seen all. Anyways if your city is not in high-res don't worry, coz even gorakhpur is has got high-res!

Man I need to buy a huge harddisk/ faster internet connection now

EDIT: Another significant change is that the global resolution i.e images for the whole planet are now improved to 15metres per pixel. Earlier it was 1Km/pixel. Which means even if your city is not in high-res you can still see buildings and all.

EDIT2: From: http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showflat....gonew/1#UNREAD

I guess you have to buy better video card, RAM and internet connection for this, rather than hard disk!

yup definitely a faster internet connection, but Ge works fine with my PIII, 8mb Integrated video, 256Ram. Though adding more wouldn't hurt.

Don't worry Indyan, its only a matter of time. Besides 15/pixel ain't that bad, atleast compared to 1km/pixel.
