For what it is worth, I was very disappointed in TomTom.  I found it
difficult to use with VO and found it was not possible to get turn
directions i.e. right/left.  I regret purchasing that app.

I've been pretty impressed with the Mapquest app.  Aside from address entry
being a bit tedious, the directions have been solid and for free I'm
surprised what the app does.

Greetings,

Perhaps those who believe  Navigon's interface to be overly abstruse might
consider posting which tasks they would like to perform and what steps they
tried rather than a general statement lacking specifics that might scare off
people who might otherwise find this app very useful.

Many of us who have Navigon are scratching our heads since it does not take
a technical wizard to ascertain, for example  that from the main screen one
can locate an address by selecting "enter an address", or select: "search
for a POI" to start a business search.  VO identifies both of these as
buttons.

Best regards.
Geoff

involved in making Navigon work.  I've gotten discouraged with the number of
hoops to jump through, just to get directions somewhere.  Or, perhaps I'm
just too much of a homebody to make it worth my while to work with.  I have
a secret notion that only wizards and geniuses can really get anywhere using
it.:)
