Finally, I upgraded my 2g iphone to 3gs. before I upgraded to new 3GS, I was a little skeptical about 3GS because I was happy about everything for the first generation. now I felt much better with 3GS ^__^
anyway, I am considering to buy GPS software and need some help.
I narrowed down to two GPS software.
copilot and Mobilenavigator.
I really like the price of copilot but I don't like $20 monthly fee for real time traffic.
Mobilenavigator is expensive but looks like very well made software and one time fee of real time traffic.

I think I need to know pros and cons for both products before I buy GPS app. Can anyone give any input on both software??
 
I have both, co-pilot kept showing me on the wrong adjacent road and where one turn followed another one very close it would not tell me about the other turn until I was PAST it!

I briefly tried it the other day as a new update appeared on the appstore and it appeared to be a lot better with it's position of me on the road.

BUT... and although here in UK we can't use FULL postcodes yet, I use MobileNavigator all the time, it is so accurate and you don't even need to look at the screen as the text to voice reading out street names to you is fantastic.

Hope this helps!
 
I don't have Navigon to compare, but I'm happy with Copilot. The Real time traffic is $20 per year.

I don't have Copilot to compare, but I'm happy with Navigon. The real time traffic is a one time fee of $20 for a limited time then $25 after that.

Side note: The real time traffic update has been submitted to Apple for UK (awaiting approval). And will be submitted soon for U.S.
