Frank, you can bet your bottom dollar apple will allow google nav. They have no choice. The backlash would be tremendous is apple announced they weren’t allowing google nav. It would be pretty much begging the consumer to go droid.

You guys are all assuming the almighty apple will allow google nav!

F ing fanboys make me wanna kill people. Tomtom/navigon/sygic/copilot (all of which I have tried) all have their strengths and you peolpe are whining and in all likelyhood haven't even tried tomtom.

You know what I pay the same price as some one who has 3g. And yet I barely get edge. I am not complaining about google nav it was directed at AT&T you bunch of a holes

The Google Nav app also has voice control, so there's no need for typing in info.

For me, personally, the iPhone's screen is a bit small for any GPS. I'll stick with my Garmin for now.

@macboy15:

The TomTom kit allows the 1st gen iPhone and touch to work... not the app by itself.

I use to use Att Navigator on my old AT&T tilt and it was great to say the least. Took me far and wide the only downside was the $10/month fee. Tom Tom has always been a far second in my eyes. Garmin ftw!!!

@Mark If your having these problems with at&t why are you still with them? Etf and leave. I love when ppl like you b***h and cry. Not everyone has problems with at&t.I have full 3g everywhere I go with my 3gs. It all depends where you live man. At&t has over 76 million sub they must be doing something right. There not all iphone subs.

@mark

Google nav caches you're route, so if you drop signal, you'll have your entire route available to navigate. Not to mention, google nav looks leaps and bounds better than the $100 apps, such as using satellite to see an actual picture of the turn you're taking. Not bad for a free app.

Yea mark shut up, I’d rather have FREE navigation app than pay $100-200 for a navigation app that takes up storage. I rather have music and videos in the apace than a pricey navigation app. So up yours.

Everyone is preaching the google nav. Have people forgotten it is web based and when your data drops so does your maps and all things google. And if you are on AT&T then i am sure it will suck just like the service we recieve from att. I can’t even carry on a conversation with out dropping calls can’t imagine depending AT&T to navigate

Boooooom the Genius is first! I feel sorry for anyone that purchased this subpar product. When I’m bored, I go to the app store and read all the bad reviews and laugh inside. Luckily, google nav is coming soon, which should put an end to this GPS price gouging nonsense.
