Is there a FREE GPS software that can do this?
I am not looking for TTS or turn-by-turn or 3d maps or anything fancy. I just want something like Google maps or Windows Live that I can mark Favorites in and save them. So when I find a nice pizza joint or whatever I can just 'Favorite' it and the location stays stored. I have read multiple threads and cant seem to find anything that does this....for free.

Re: Is there a FREE GPS software that can do this?
Live Search and Google Maps is free why dont u use them....Live Search is real good on finding joints and gas etc...i think google maps looks better as far as GPS but Live Search turn by turn is way easier and it keeps up with your distance as well. H3LL on live search u can say "Pizza Hut" and it pull up all the pizza huts LOL

All check out Nav4all.com and amazegps.com
This are two turn by turn direction similar to tomtom. AND YES, THEY ARE FREE.

Re: Is there a FREE GPS software that can do this?
try GPStoday, http://www.geoterrestrial.com/

its not as featured as google maps or live search, but it will let you save whatever address you are at as a contact, and it takes all your contacts and puts them on the map.
it runs on your today screen, i think it has some good info on their. they're not quite at a 1.0 release yet, but its free and works fine.

good luck

Live Search lets you name and save GPS locations.
