In the on-going search for a quality voice enabled, turn by turn sat-nav I was nudged in the direction of Wisepilot which has recently been updated. It offered a free 5 day trial, so I gave it a go, and I am pretty impressed. The navigation itself is accurate and it seems to have a lot of "sensible but essential" options.
It's not that cheap, but you pay for it as a one-off rather than an annual subscription which appeals to me and it has various safety caemra/traffic options as well.
Just a small update for you - I just got back from a 3 week trip to Australia and used WP every day whilst there (purchased a 1 month map sub) and it worked flawlessly the whole time.
I've finally deleted Amaze and Telmap, will stick with this one for a while I think.

Well then, would you mind telling us how much is the one time fee? I hope it's not more than the Garmin Mobil one time cost of $99. I don't like the annual subscription either.
The trial works perfectly in Greece. It also has the option to download maps in the memory card, but it does not come as a one-off, it has subscription, that can be up to 24 months. The cost is reasonable to me and it is the only one for BB I have seen so far that can store maps to the card, but not all the info is stored, so data plan is still needed for navigation, so it is still useless abroad, with the current roaming charges and policies.
What a shame, looks decent. I hope they come up with an update that supports the map of Dubai
