Google Adds Buzz to Maps for Mobile App for BlackBerry

For a long time now, I’ve been trying to use Google Buzz on my Nexus One Maps App but to no avail.  For some reason I can’t get it to work. So, I was quite surprised  how easy it was to activate Google Buzz on the Maps for Mobile 4.0 app for my BlackBerry Bold 9700. This came after Google updated its Maps for Mobile App for Blackberry devices to version 4.0. And together with Google Buzz, Google has also added some other cool features to the app.
