Many work great and others don't work at all.

which one works the best for your titan?
are you talking about for directions/mapping/etc?

I use garmin mobile xt for turn by turn directions. The commercial app comes in 2 versions a) locked to a microsd card b) locked to their gps, but there's a way around it if you get my drift. It's the best one out from what I have seen, and I have tried tomtom, iguidance, and a few others. Iguidance is nice but it is not built for WM natively and therefore is verrrrry slow, tomtom is nice but garmin mobile xt comes with free ad supported traffic (you get to see a little ad for a hotel company or something while it routes - just a little image in the 'routing' box - not intrusive at all and it goes away when it figures out the route). Garmin mobile xt also has an app to load custom map sets on (on a state by state basis), the only ones I could find for tomtom were the whole us/canada which is huge (>1gig).

For just looking stuff up and getting location info, google maps and live search are amazing too.
