I made the mistake of hitting the upgrade button !!!
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com11-13-09 07:16 PMLike 0 - looks like our days of using Gokivo for free are finally over. My wife's Curve had the little App World alert that she had an upgrade waiting, and I noticed one of the features the new version provided is "support for monthly billing."
...thought to myself "that's a feature I can live without" and elected not to upgrade. But when I started the free version she already had, it said the free trial period is now over and there's an upgrade waiting for her that will give her another 14 days to try it or free. I fear the App World alert on my Bold will be coming any day now.
Here's the thing. I LOVE Gokivo. It's good enough I'd support the company that made it, except that I almost never use it, and when I do, I could have just mapped my route ahead of time with Google. Is it nicer to have turn-by-turn, and a fun app to play with? You bet! But I only really plot a course once a month or so. I don't know what they'll be charging, but I do know it's monthly, so even if it's a reasonable $5 per month, that would be $5 per use for me.
Looks like I'll be checking out LifeInPocket and telemap.11-14-09 04:52 AMLike 0 - Wow, really? It better be a lot better than it was the last time I tried it. It was NOT worth money at the time. Was always sending me the long way around three sides of a block when I could have just driven one block along the fourth side. It didn't say street names so it was easy to miss turns, and no matter how I had the settings, it always told me to get off the highway every time I got on it. So if I was going somewhere that really did require or make the most sense using the highway, it would just sit in a constant loop of "exit highway in .2 miles.... recalculating route."
And why are the P and Q keys menu and back? We already have a key for each of those things. I think amAze really is amazing, but not in the sense they were probably going for. Amazing they think they can charge money for that, perhaps.11-14-09 04:58 AMLike 0 - I agree with you digitalb0y. I do not use them enough to pay for them. However, they are nice when I need them.
I think we will always have some options...
Here are some to look into:

I did use Garmin cracked with my BlackJack and loved it. The maps were local to my card and it was great.
I am not sure of the details on this one.

- Let me know how it works out. I will be moving to Garmin when Gokivo catches up with me.
A bit of a side question... Where do you add your location for your profile? I looked through my Control Panel and could not find where to specify it????

Good reason to have a car charger...11-14-09 11:34 PMLike 0 - Dude, get them to give you another reg. code for your new BlackBerry. They usually do it once! Nothing free will come close to TeleNav or Garmin as far as voice-guided GPS apps. Google Maps is supposed to have it soon, but again, it won't have all the cool stuff, so get another code!11-14-09 11:51 PMLike 0
