Google zoom

Am I completely delusional, or did Google Local just quietly bump up the maximum zoom scale on "satellite" images (but not map images) by a couple of notches and improve their imagery to parity with Google Earth?

It must have happened within the past week or so, but I haven't heard anything about it.

Naw, you aren't insane. (At least for this reason :))
