Default BB Traffic w Voice Nav available today
This is awesome. I was a member of the BETA group and I love the integration.

Now BB has free, organic voice navigation.

During the beta period I enjoyed how it easily allowed for ETA sharing and how it allows BBM Music to continue playing but the voice nav comes through over and above the music so you get to continue the beat and get the directions. Everything seems good to me. If you get a call, they both stop and they both resume after it.

Enjoy it.

Thanks. Looking forward to trying it out. The UI is horrible and it needs to be integrated into BlackBerry Maps...but at least it's an accurate audible turn by turn that's free.

Default Can't wait to try it - we need a Nav-Voice app
Ever since Garmin delayed their upgrade to handle neweer OS7 devices, user have been left without a Nav-Voice app. I hope this works well - Garmin was super.

Like the OP been using the beta version for a bit now. This remains my favorite traffic app. ATT does not integrate BB Maps so no loss. The traffic predictions are pretty good (better than others tried by me) and the voice directions are excellent in my metropolitan area. We have the app installed on 2 of the 3 family BB phones. Thank you, RIM.

Upgrading after I upgrade BBM Music (also has an update).
