Android Google 3D Map for HTC Touch
 
I might be late with this but is there some kind of app to get the google 3d navi that the new Android has for HTC Touch?

Thanks in advanced!

Get on google and a do a search for google navigator. It was floating around for PPC before android phones were out in the wild.

It does use Google Maps and Google Earth, but it's not made by Google and there is a price of $59. Thus name change to "Global Navigator".

In addition, it requires a data connection (just like real Google Navigator). Even for those with unlimited data plan, service may not be available where you drive (I-87 in the upstate NY, anyone?)

So at this point in time, there is no free equivalent to the Droid program for the HTC Touch Pro, or any other Smart/WinMo phone?

IMO, AmazeGPS would be the closest match ("basic" version is free).

Would google navigator conflict with the Sprint Navi?

AmazeGPS doesn't even list WinMo or HTC as a supported device/brand (see here: http://www.amazegps.com/?language=in...=&page=handset)

So...... not sure this would be a solution, lol. Maybe (hopefully) I am missing something? The title of the thread was navigation for HTC Touch, I only see heavy Nokia and Blackberry support on their website.

From their FAQ:

Q:I don't find version 5 for my Windows Mobile phone
A:Currently, only version 4.5 is available for Windows Mobile phones. We are working on version 5 also for Windows Mobile.

So, on the home page, scroll down to "Download older version 4.5 for free" and you will get here:
http://dl.locationet.com/amAze/?vendor=HTC
Then proceed with download...
