Iphone 16gb + google earth

Hi, my daughter just bought the above today. She tried to download it and got a message that Safari could not download the program. No problems connecting up to the router so I suppose the question is
Can google earth be downloaded to the Iphone ??
Had a bit of a google and could see some 3rd party appliances but nothing from Apple.

Maps on the homescreen IS google maps.. there is no Google Earth for the iPhone only Google Maps.

To get satellite imagery in the Maps application, press the 'page curl' button on the bottom right, and select 'Satellite'. This uses the same data as Google Earth, so the view will be identical.

Yup, that works!

Got my iphone today - 16g white from the Applestore in Bluewater - no queue at all and super helpful staff.
