If you haven't know yet, there's an update for Google Maps on your webOS smartphone (Pre, Pixi, Veer), not to another version, but to BingMaps, which is the Maps apps pre-installed in TouchPad.
Like the HP Palm Blog says, you just open App Catalog and download Maps apps from there in order to update your Google Maps.
I did that myself, and not too long after that I decided to get my old Google Maps back. So I open up webOS doctor file and look for Maps application. With the help from #webos-internals on freenode, I found it under /usr/palm/applications in com.palm.app.maps folder. So I re-package it using IPK Packager from Jason Robbitaile.
After deleting Maps apps, I installing this file using webOS Quick Install (wOSQI), again from Jason, and I've got my Google Maps back :)
