Thank you, just a couple of questions:-

When I upgraded to 3.0 my cache was wiped out, I have now backed it up. Does the installation of 4.0 use my existing cache?

Look at a site near Mexico City 19deg 34'14.50N. 99deg 00'09.24W -- a 3.2km spiral, what is it?

Version 4 offers incredible resolution so surely you won't be able to reuse your cache. Google 3 had a typical resolution of 1 pixel for a 15 meter area. Version 4 offers a very fine precision of 10-70 CENTIMETER area per pixel! I am thinking you might be able to make out the shapes of people with that. However, the new version 4 is still in beta and one of the things left to do is getting the good resolution mapped for Asia.

Doesn't the resolution depend on the quality of the images google are using?

Chiang Mai is very good, in the town, but other places are just blurry.
