Just like most other smart phones the Pre comes to you with a GPS Navigation app. But it’s not just any GPS Navigation app this one is fully functional with Sprint Navigation so you can her the turn by turn navigation with text to speech functionality. Also has tons of maps on them and no matter where you are the GPS navigation application seems to have your location down pat.
Just like most GPS you can enter addresses and set favorites. It works great and even includes points of interest. It’s a great application and definitely up there with the best of navigation systems on cell phones. Go Palm Pre - less than 24 hours left people!

The Aprint navigation app, if it is like the AT&T navigation app for Palm Pre, unfortunately does not stack up well against other navigation apps. I downloaded AT&T’s app on a 30-day trial yesterday, tried it, and was extremely disappointed. The best app I’ve used so far (between AT&T, Garmin, Magellan, and TomTom) is TomTom. TomTom is so far superior to the AT&T app (by TeleNav, for $9.95 per month additional on your phone bill) that I would not be able to begin to describe the differences in a short review. Your review does a disservice to those who are interested in a real navigation aid by making it sound as if the app actually “works great,” and begs the question, “have you ever used any other navigation app?” Worse with regard to AT&T (I do not know if this is also true of Sprint), NO other navigation app is available through its proprietary “App Catalog.” Needless to say, I’m deleting the app.
