They do need more data, but where they have good data, it is pretty
impressive.  A cube-neighbor just tried getting directions from our
office in N Raleigh to his house off of Glenwood, and it did a very good
job of following the actual route that you should take on the satellite
image.  As an example here is a map from RTI (my old employer out in the
park) to Enloe High School (my alma mater in raleigh)....
