Default Best GPS - Mapquest Navigator

Hey all... I have been playing with several GPS programs over the past couple of days. Amaze, Infospace FindIt, and Mapquest Navigator. BY FAR the mapquest program is the best. It provides turn by turn voice guided instructions and the on screen display mirrors that of most in car GPS systems. Interface is very easy to use. Just a personal opinion, but it is worth checking out. http://www.mapquest.com/features/mai...bile_navigator

In order to get the program, select SPRINT as your carrier and the 8703e as your model. They will send you a text for install, and it works flawlessly.

Living - no cost, totally free. Cherri - I have used TelNav, and I prefer Mapquest. I like the interface, as it is almost identical to the GPS you see in vehicles. Not to mention all of the options are the same. Give it a try, I think you will be impressed.

Thanks for the info on Mapquest. I downloaded the program and it is great. Do anyone know if this program will expire.after so many days. The program indicates this is for Sprint, I am with T-mobile.
