Any programs offer turn by turn directions?

I was thinking Google Maps?

Google Maps is ok, but in my opinion VZNavigator is the best one I've tried without paying an amazingly high amount. Garmin is a great program too, but be ready to pay for it (i believe in the neighborhood of $80).

VZN has great search features, a really nice display and has always been really accurate for me. plus now it has the ability to use traffic alerts to reroute you to avoid delays.

i agree. while not free i love VZ NAV and have been using for 4 years or so.

I hear great things about VZ Navigator, but if you look at cost of ownership you will see the garmin app is a better investment. Plus LOTS of other features in the Garmin app.

I use it and love it.

Nav4All

both r working on the Storm but I agree with posters....Garmin & VZNav well worth the $$ if you use them often.

Street View is kinda suitable with turn by turn directions. Just wish the streetview window was larger and had audio though.

With the google maps touch the street view pic, push blackberry button then select expand. This puts the street view to fill the whole screen. But there still is no audio unfortunatly.

Like posted above the only one I know about is nav4all. Sometimes it doesn't give you the fasted directions but it gets you to the right place in the end and it's free so it's well worth it.

Garmin Mobile for $80--one time or VZN for $10/month equals $120/year for how many years...?

Ditto!!!
I fail to understand how people can possibly equate $10 per month as being cheaper than $80 one time non-recurring fee. The break even pay back is pretty elementary... as in 8 months.

Garmin Rocks... I use it daily!!!
