Or any apps made for walking directions rather than driving

If you're looking for a free solution that doesn't involve a big install like google maps, live search will do this (although it doesn't talk if I remember correctly). As the previous poster mentioned, iGuidance, TomTom, iGo, and Garmin will work like a real GPS unit you have purchased (enter an address and it walks you through it telling you where to go). These will also work while you are on the phone. These are all commercial though. iGuidance is nice since it says street names, but I find it way too slow. Garmin has free traffic over the net and I find it the best just no saying street names. The sprint navigation package will also say roadway names I guess but I have never used it and it costs $9.99 a month if you don't have a vision package that includes it (most don't) - if you have sprint that is. It also requires you to be on the net so you can't talk on the phone at the same time.
