Saw a live demo of Google Maps for cell phones yesterday, including
demos
of most of the features on this Google page:

http://www.google.com/mobile/maps/


Pretty damned slick, and to me, at least, a lot more useful than the
dash-mounted GPS-only devices. Apparently at the moment the mapping
programs are more developed and more featured on the "Android" based
cell
phones, as opposed to the iPhone cell phones.

Might be enough to motivate me to trade up my flip phone to an Android
phone. :)

The iPhone has a built-in app that pretty much does this... not quite,
but
it works pretty well.



Yeah, I'm sure it does, among the 1,000,000 apps!

I've only played around with iPhones at the Apple store, because AT&T cell
phone coverage in my area...sucks. So I've never considered buying one.

My current cell provider has some Android OS phones that seem pretty
nifty.

I think you're thinking of downloadable apps. The navigation one is part of
the OS installation.
