Best GPS Mapping Software

I got the TP today at Best Buy. I tried using the Sprint Nagativation today for the first time. I love the idea it pulls traffic and reroutes you but I don't think it's worth $10 a month for the service. Anyone care to suggest a software to install that I can use the GPS for free?

Sorry I am coming from the 6700 so I never had GPS built into the phone.

Google Maps and Live Search are both free, and work great with your GPS

yea, live search and google maps are gonna be the only free ones really.

you could get one of the apps that has a one time fee, like TomTom or Garmin XT.

Out of those there is alot of topics on, just not in the Raphael section, just search for best gps software or something to that effect.

I use Garmin Mobile XT and I love it. One thing I really like about it is the frequent updates they post on their site. Sometimes it makes it feel like a totally different program (in a good way). And they are FREE updates.
