A new update for WiiEarth has been released by homebrew coder Paul Wagener. This Wiibrew app allows you to use your Wiimote to navigate the Earth using Google Maps and similar services. The new update adds widescreen support and some more bug fixes.

Version 2.2 changelog:
  • Added widescreen support
  • Added always visible background tiles
  • Fixed graphical glitches in overlay text
  • Fixed tile downloading issues:
    • Google out-of-bandwidth tiles no longer give graphical weirdness
    • More TCP support means less empty tiles
    • Some DNS issues solved
And here's a little video preview of WiiEarth:
