I use google maps navigation on my HTC Desire, launching it using a little app called Quickgo which I wrote, which gives you a full screen keyboard which is easier to use in the car.
And to the chap on STW who wrote QuickGo – I tried it today, brilliant.
Great, thanks!
For a holder I use the official HTC one, it is fine, and charges even when navigating.
Google maps is jolly clever – it integrates with google traffic, to route you taking account of jams – eg. if I route down to Heathrow way late at night or Sunday morning or something, it goes M1 -> M25 -> destination, if I do it in the day , it often misses out the M25 bit and goes further west then back in.
I mentioned this in carphone wharehouse and was told phones are only meant to be used as an occasional gps.
That’s just carphone warehouse staff talking rubbish.
