What GPS do you have on your diamond?

Whats the best GPS in your opinion? I used the Sprint NAV but Juicy's new ROM does not have it so I want to try something else since Google Maps does not even give voice directions or recalculate if you take a different route.

I use garmin xt and it works great. voice turn by turn directons.

I too use Garmin with text to speech. but no street name speech. No monthly fee is great. I think sprint Nav has monthly charges

I heard igo8 is good too. it got map with 3-D buildings. but it has no Point of Interest, at least in NA.

I use Live Search, it does not use voice turn by turn. However it does recalculate and it has a lot of useful features ie. traffic, movies and gas prices. Best of all it FREE

It recalculates you due to traffic jams etc.?

After trying some of the programs mentioned here I went back to Sprint Navigation, why? It is included in my plan, turn by turn directions, small footprint, updated information, traffic info, etc. Hard to beat if you don't have to pay extra for it and IMO even if you have to.

Sprint Navigation is well done, I will admit that. I tried it for the first time this weekend and was very impressed with how easy it was to use and all of the features.

However I have to say that I recently got TomTom and it is now my GPS app of choice. I honestly don't know how I survived this long without it.
