We’re huge fans of the built-in Google Maps Navigation that comes with Android 1.6 and later.\u00a0 The free GPS service has come along and found itself replacing applications and services from bigger, more established players.\u00a0 Naturally, we tend to show a little bias around here being that we’re all Android lovey-dovey.\u00a0 How does the service stack up in the eyes<\/strong><\/a> of GPS bloggers though?\u00a0 We were interested to read the perspective of a writer for a site called GPSTrackLog <\/strong><\/a>and find out how they view Google Maps Navigation.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the biggest features in Google’s service is that the navigation is tied to the cloud.\u00a0 This means that the data should be always updated, constantly changing and improving.\u00a0 Does that help?\u00a0 We’ll save the meat and potatoes for the full review, but here’s some of the takeaway.\u00a0 Rich Owings, the writer says it’s “Promising, but not ready for prime time. Google has a great start here, but it still needs a lot of work.”<\/p>\n

Thanks Rich!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
