Default GPS app advice?

Tour will be my 1st Blackberry I'll use for apps.
Great advice from all on prior post about "1st 5 apps" to install.

Many posters list "gps app" as a must do, but I don't see (or don't know what I'm reading) any gps apps listed by name.

Any suggestions as to what the best gps app(s) would be to download?
I plan on downloading google maps and poynt-- don't know if they're relevant to a gps app.

Thanks in advance!

Supposedly LifeinPocket is a really good GPS Navigation, which works like a normal GPS navigation unit (such as Garmin). But it is Free and it uses your internet

if your with verizon, the phone coems with VZ Navigator, and in my opinion the best GPS I have used on the phones, but ofcourse it comes with a price tag of 10 bucks a month.

being a blackberry, the blackberry comes with BB Maps as well. That is free, but its not turn by turn directions but does a great job knowing where you are and following you on a map.

theres a Garmon app out too that I know of, but you have to pay for it as well and in my opinion not as good as verizons VZ Navigator
