gpracer1 · #1 (**permalink**) 09-24-2009, 03:42 PM

Looking for the latest and greatest GPS Navigation for the TP2 and its large screen.

Copilot 8 seems nice, what do you all recommend?

i believe there was a thread on XDA about this.

I used to use TomTom on my Mogul and I loved it. I am using Garmin right now, and I am not too thrilled with it (very slow, and I am looking for text to speech). I am going to try out iGo8 when I get a chance.

copilot 8 does sound promising though.

I currently have 3 of them on my SD Card - Garmin Mobile XT, TomTom and iGo 8 and I would say iGo 8 is definitely the best in terms of maps, beautiful 3d interface, POI database and navigation. Working great on my Sprint Touch Pro 2. Garmin does its job well. But, its interface is nowhere as nice as iGo 8. TomTom is my least favorite out of the 3.

Correct me if I am wrong but iGo8 and Nav N Go are the same product right?

The products look very similar.

Nav N Go is the company that makes iGO.

I've got iGo8 and Garmin installed, as well as the other usual suspects (Bing and Google Maps). I go has the best interface and POI although it's sometimes tough to use. I like the Garmin because it looks like my Garmin in the car but it's a little slow. I'm definitely looking forward to trying Copilot 8.

Copilot site says its only $35.
I find that really really cheap.

I use Garmin Xt, with absolutely NO problems!

I use Igo8 and love it. I have used Garmin, VZ navigator and TomTom. Igo8 is the only program that has almost no lag as you are moving. It's almost a fluid movement and all data and directions are spot on. It's also the only nav program that shows the main entrance to my community, as all other make you go in through the back entrance because the front one does not exist on other maps. It's the only one I will use.
