Dunno if it'll work, but I too miss the "drive to" option that was in the Touch Pro (IIRC).

Thanks for the tip to the other thread. I have posted my experiences with it over there.

Let's just say I am still looking for a working solution that is compatible with the Sprint OEM WM6.5 update. Anyone else have any solutions?

try this, look in the "win mo" contact list (start>outlook>contacts) then hightlight the person then click menu. the very first option should be "drive to"
it works perfect on my sprint 6.5 with googlemaps installled.
if your going thru the "all people" link on the people tab, then click the person>menu>see more info>then menu again, drive to should be the 2nd one on the list. just tried again on my phone and both ways work. good luck

i don't know if it's possible from within sprint nav to access contacts, but i use this "fix" and can click "drive to" from within the contact list which then launches sprint nav.

Thanks for the tip Dalastone, but it still didn't work. I can list all the options under menu in the win mo contact list, but it isn't there.

I wonder if it had anything to do with the fact that I installed the 'new' Bing, realized it sucked [just like Sprint Nav, no access to contacts] so I installed a Sept 2009 Bing Cab that I know worked?

At the bottom of that menu list is both "Locate in Google Maps" and "Show on Map". The latter one is Bing. But nowhere is 'drive to' visible.
