Google Maps v6.0 for Android adds something that should be pretty awesome if it takes off; Indoor Navigation.

Google Maps will offer you floor plans at some of the largest retailers in the U.S.A and Japan, and Airports as well. The User Interface has also gotten a bit of an update as well. Pretty awesome eh? If it’s anything like Nokia’s Indoor Navigation concepts, it would require retailers or malls to build their floor plans for Google to use them. Check out the video below for a better idea, more info at the source below.
