Sadly, finding businesses and traffic data are 99% of the reason I open google maps. I have organic installed, but I've since found out that "I want to go somewhere I don't know the way to but have found out the street address some other way, and I don't care about the traffic in between" simply doesn't happen.

It happens for me when I'm offline and the stupid Google Maps downloads didn't work. I don't even bother with downloading Google Maps any more, I just use CoMaps instead.
