i use navigation all the time, works awesome. The only thing i wish i could find out is how much further i have to go to my destonation. It gives you damn good directions, just would be cool to find out how much more you have to go.

Windows mobile 6 is dead, plain and simple. Really, it seems as though Symbian is too, though I think it may be more popular in Europe. The thing is, I don't think people will pay several hundred dollars for a GPS product on android or the iphone for that matter, those would certainly be the platforms to develop for. I find the app to be very accurate, some of this may relate to your GPS receiver. For me, the navigation and look around apps make a great gps package, though I would at least have a look if sendero developed a full gps product. They will need o do something though, windows mobile 6 is dead, and there is little if any reason to purchase any of the blind notetakers it works with.
