Does anyone know if there is a HK equivalent of MapQuest or Google Maps? That'd be most useful.

Online?

www.ypmap.com
www.centamap.com

Do any of those HK map sites have "plug ins" that let websites link to them and open up a specific spot on the map?

For example, Google will let you link to the white house at THIS PAGE..

Kai -- unfortunately not.

Ypmap has a function where you can email a link .. and then use that for a week or so to point to a location.

What about a map (application) that is accessible by mobile phone?
Ypmap has a Windows CE/PoocketPC app, but I would prefer something browser-based/OS agnostic.
Anybody know of anything?

HKG4Life : Take a look at this http://www2.mapking.com/en/EnglishInstallation.htm

Not browser .. but might be a good alternative.

KIA: Thanks, interesting.
But unfortunately not suitable for me: I am using a Symbian UIQ smartphone. Didn't think there would be a dedicated application (but would be delighted if there were!), so that's why I asked for a browser-based solution...
Can anybody confimr whether their operator WAP/mobile internet offering has something along these lines? In Singapore (way back in the days of dial-up WP, before GPRS etc.) I used to get this from SingTel. In Hong Kong, 3 does not seem to have it and I don't recall Smartone, who I was with before, having had it either...
