has anyone tried the amaze gps for the imagio. I know a couple of people said they tried it and it's not bad but they didn't mention if they were using an imagio or not? Anyone tried it the imagio, and if so is it any good? one last thing please post the cab link if you do use it thanks.

it's a free turn by turn navigation for mobile phones. It stated that it supported winmo devices but on the site it only has blackberry support and no winmo. So i'm confused some people said that they got it working on their winmos devices so i want to know how they did and if it's any good? google amaze gps

If a person has JBEd or any other JRE on their device, they should be able to run the Java version of Amaze.

I'm using Amaze v4.5 (free). It's a bit quirky but does give voice turn-by-turn directions and utilizes the Imagio's GPS with no problem. It has a 3D view with Heads Up or North Up Options as well as a simpler, "Arrow" Option. It's unfortunate that it does not interface with "Contacts" and the Address Entry is a bit cumbersome. I'm looking forward to Google Maps with t-b-t.

Used it no problem. I think I downloaded the TP2 "version." Not bad software especially for free. Runs quickly. Kind of hard to find POI's but it's free. I didn't need to make any changes or anything out of the box. I have also used nav4all

Weird. I don't see it. Not sure how I downloaded it I guess or they changed the available devices. I'll see if I have the .cab
