Ariande is good. Navigone is crap. I tried it when going to an appointment in New Orleans, and it did not see the medical establishment. Oschner is really big, and it has expanded to several other locations in the state as well. I would avoid Navigone at all costs. Motion X GPS Drive is great

Well that is my story about Navigone and I will stick to it. With the number of things this app has wrong it should not even be around at this point. So my statement is and always will be that it is what I said it was. Data assisted GPS seems to work better for the most part anyway. Jordan
