So are you saying that google navigation works for you? Or that just plain old maps works for you?
I think it's important to specify differences between programs here:

- There was a very old version of "Google Navigator" that featured turn by turn navigation for Windows Mobile. Google has NOT updated this application. I would not recommend this app to anyone.
- Google has updated "Google Maps" for Android (and maybe Blackberry / Iphone?) that features turn-by-turn navigation.
- The Google Maps that is currently available for Windows Mobile does NOT have turn by turn navigation.
- Bing has turn by turn navigation and is the best free turn by turn navigation app for Windows Mobile currently.
