Google has released an update of Google Maps for Windows Mobile. Although, the new version does not adds any features, but it makes several bug fixes, especially to the Google Latitude.

Now, the Google Latitude allows to update your location even when Google Maps are not running in the background. When running in the background update mode, it will use the cell ID location detection to save some battery juice.

• Auto-restart location updates: If you turn off your phone or it ran out of battery with automatic Latitude location updates enabled either in the background (see above) or with Maps left open, Latitude will respect this choice and automatically restart location updates in background mode when you next turn on your phone.
• Force location updates: Manually refreshing your Latitude friends list also forces the update of your own location if automatic detection is enabled.
• Login errors: Several fixes completed to address multiple causes of login errors for Latitude, such as invalid certificates.
• Backlight behavior: Your device backlight should turn off according to your system settings when Maps or Latitude is left open in the background. Previously, Latitude may have kept your backlight on when in the background.
• Internal error: Selecting a friend in Latitude to see more info and options will no longer cause internal errors on some devices.
