    iOS 5 Navigation?

    Lucky I was just testing it out so I didn't get lost. But I did get confused when my phone was sending me back the wrong way at a roundabout. Then I realised it was a different route. Lol.

    I don't know why they haven't either as android and nokia both have it built in. My guess is that it would hurt sales of those expensive sat nav apps...

    iOS 5 Navigation?

    ah you did the right thing.. i relied on it at a time when i was in a rush to get some where and it really messed up my plan.. i should of done what you did but i was not going any where that i did not already know the way which should not have mattered...

    yeah apps like tomtom that cost like £60 in the app store for the europe version i think i would get that but i would not want to pay the £60 as i dont use the sat nav enough and i hope when i soon buy a car to have the sat nav built in the car

    iOS 5 Navigation?

    To be honest I've not been anywhere yet that I didn't know the way. If I did need it then I would of ended up in the same boat as you. Lol. Apple need to change I a bit before the final release.

    I would rather just buy a proper tomtom for £100 than spend £60 on the app...

    yeah because it drains the battery so then you spend another £20/30 on a car charger.. for me it drained the battery to 0% when i used maps for a few hours

    Yep. You will probably need the tomtom cradle to boost your gps signal as well. That's another £99...

    iOS 5 Navigation?

    I'm still really surprised that Apple has not really kicked it into high gear getting their own turn by turn software.

    This is a huge selling point for Android. And if Apple for their own free integrated Gps software they could really slow or stop android in its tracks.

    agreed, atm i think maps is useless and horrible to use even if does does find every where you want to go to.. getting there is another thing using maps

    iOS 5 Navigation?

    This was the tipping/selling point for me when deciding between android or iPhone.

    I find it incredibly useful on a weekly basis and just perfectly integrated into Android

    It is a no brainer to include it in your OS.

    Goes the new iOS take advantage of bluetooth GPS devices if I wanted to use an external device instead in the integrated one?
