    Does anyone know if the Bold Touch will come with a turn by turn voice navigation similar to google Maps? I believe I have read that the Playbook has Bing Maps on it. Is there a chance the new BB with 6.1 will come with Bing Maps and maybe turn by turn voice directions?

    No but hopefully BlackBerry has something in store for turn by turn navigation soon

    They are getting pretty close to that with Blackberry Traffic.. Hopefully they add some kind of voice with that and I would be more than happy

    It's probably only a matter of time before they combine Blackberry Traffic and Blackberry Maps. BBMaps is due for an overhaul.
    Of course, I have no such evidence suggesting they'd do such a thing except to make a SUPER APP!!!

    RIM acquired a navigation company a couple years ago (Dash I think?) so hopefully when QNX is ready for phones they may have a new navigation app. They may not want to develop it for the current OS since it isn't the fastest and most powerful.
