No - the new picture of streets thingy. There is a little man on top
of the zoom control drag and drop him onto a street and you are
supposed to get a rotateble/steerable picture of the street in
question.

I see what you mean.

Hovering the mouse by that "little man on top" I see a prompt message
about "no street view available".

Tried some City addresses instead of local to me and discovered the
"black rectangle" problem.

Probably requires a genuine Flash9 or later...
