With google and live any time i plot directions i have to check the route because it gives me the "grand tour" i.e. i have a papa johns that a half mile from my home and google gives me a 3 mile route. I would like to try telenav though.

If you want something "like" a TomTom, you could get TomTom...for the PPC. It's not free like Google or Live but, as you can see,you get what you pay for. TomTom Naviagtor 6 runs around $100 and runs on most devices. I've been running it on a Treo 700wx but am moving next week to a Samsung i760 and am told it'll work.

I was skeptical but I took the plunge after buying StreetAtlas for years and using Google and Live and always feeling like I didn't have a "real" GPS device.

Voice (but not street names), live traffic, etc.

So far so good.
