Re: turn by turn gps

The free version of AmazeGPS v. 4.5 is here: http://http://www.brothersoft.com/mobile/amaze-download-4589.html

Just scroll down to the compatible device, download and install.

When it is first run, you sign on as a New User; it will generate a User ID and Password. Input the new User ID and Password when you launch the app the second time.

(Sorry, I had to post enough times to be able to post a link; hope this complies with the TOS)

Re: turn by turn gps

I DLed amazegps last night. I was playing with it today on my way to work and I must say it's pretty laggy. I could see myself getting extremely frustrated with it in an emergency (or any other time, for that matter). And the lack of flick scrolling is pretty annoying. But hey, it's free.

Re: turn by turn gps

I've been using iGO8 for a few weeks now and love the Kate from UK voice. Wife and I call her Money Penny.

But seriously, iGO8 works great, no install required after initial setup. I flash new roms on here once a week w/o a hitch in iGO8's performance. Very easy interface, customizable too (changing around the left display to show Current Speed, Current speed limit, etc.)

I used the free version of aMaze for a while when I had my old xv6800's & I agree that it lags pretty badly.

It also came up with some rather bizarre routing from point A to B at times.

the best navigation device is my cars windshield. realistic graphics, real time movement, continuous weather updates (just look up), traffic alert w/ sound notification (if your driving under 8mph and using your horn, yup your in traffic), it lacks voice guide but makes up for it with the visibly obvious conveniently placed street signs and best of all its 100% FREE.. hahahahaha, oh and occasionally i'll use telenav as a backup.

Re: turn by turn gps

Just tried amAzegps myself. Yup, it's kinda laggy. Plus no spoken street names and a test route was very strange.

Is iGO free or fee?
