Re: How much memory does an average app take up?
I just prefer to have an option with the maps stored on my memory card rather than relying on the network. I've been to places where NO carrier has service, so Google Navigator wouldn't work at all there.

I tried CoPilot too. Its storage footprint is smaller (about 18Mb), but I found its maps more dated. The Q2 2009 Navteq maps I found for iGo seemed more current than the Q4 2009 ones that CoPilot says they use. CoPilot couldn't find a few streets in Illinois and Missouri while iGo did.

For WM iGo vs Android, I actually prefer the WM version. There's no TTS in Android yet and you can't skin it like you can the WM version.
