To spice up it's map look. I hope CNN expands
on the magical wall with the digital video globe
or the magic globe if you will. It takes the maps
and planets and storms and everything to another
level. With this it would be like the regions in
Pakistan would be in your living room.It is far
superior to Google Earth by far.
