Do you think we'll have satellite view in the foreseeable future? I've only got one monitor, and boy howdy it's a pain to switch between three different views (Game, Earth, map) to get everything down. Thanks for this masterpiece, by the way. It's already sped things up enough as it is!

I've thought about it, a lot, but the problem is that the good quality satellite view doesn't seem to be available outside of google maps and that does not work outside of google stuff - so I'd have to write a separate web app for that. And it's not the simplest thing ever.

If people have better ideas I'm all ears.
