amAze gives me the most time consuming routes (in contrast to the ones I normally take), especially when compared to what google maps pulls up. amAze gives me the "easiest" routes (fewer turns) which had longer distances and travel times. Definitely not a good choice. For those who have to travel long distances or are relocating to a new area, I suggest getting a program that actually checks traffic and updates itself. Those programs cost $$$, but it's money well spent.

Agreed....Amaze WILL get you where you need to go, but its not always the best route you can take.
I personally prefer TomTom myself...its worked the best for me, but I havent tried Garmin or iGo yet either. iGuidance has given me some issues, so I cant recommend it.

Sprint Telenav isnt too bad either, especially if you have a plan that includes it for free.
