I have figured out out how Bing is loaded and works with the GPS on my device. Can any one direct me to a post herein or elsewhere ... or if you have time and patience respond to the question of Google vs Bing when using the GPS on the Imagio.

Easy - Bing is a M$ product and the Imagio is running M$ software. Bing brings spoken turn by turn navigation to the Imagio with street names included.

Google has not been so generous. Android devices get navigation (spoken turn by turn). WinMo gets maps only with written directions.
