I will probably end up buying the gamin or IGO. I found the garmin, but can't seem to find a place with IGO on micro sd

I really like whatever comes with the phone. Of course I don't have to pay the monthly fee on the service. I would like osmething that didn't require the internet, as the battery just gets destroyed, but I need the space on my SD card too.

I used TomTom6 on my mogul. Worked great.

I'll try to install on my Touch Pro today. USA maps and tom tom took used less than 1GB on my memory card.

iGO 8 works great on the Diamond so should not be a problem on the TP. By far the best GPS program I have used and I have used plenty! It is a great addition to every device with it's fully customizable options, great routing, TTS if you have the correct files, great 3d graphics with mountains and all, buildings in the most popular area's...I can go on and on......

I got it to work this way:

In Google Maps select the Options menu, then GPS Setting. Change the options to "Set Manually" and then use the first drop down menu to select COM4.

The port that you select should match the COM port that shows in the settings for "External GPS" in the "System" tab in the settings panel.

Now back to the menu, select "Use GPS" and it works for me.

I dont have the TP or diamond but try AmazeGps. I have it on the touch and it's great for my needs. Voice turn by turn, 3d maps, arial view etc, try it out if it doesnt work uninstall it.

the best so far is TOM TOM 7 is amazing... no network connection= not a problem.. you have the maps saved on your sd card or internal storage so no need for signal just gps signal needed

Garmin lets you have traffic information if you have a data connection
