Hello Keith and others who might be interested in inputting addresses
into Navigon. I've created an audio podcast which demonstrates doing
this. The link is below. Hopefully this will help out.

Hi Raul,
A podcast demo on Navigon would be great, as I'm just getting familiar with it.
I understand your points about search; very helpful.
Thanks. Keith

Hi, you have to put in addresses from a bigger to smaller point of view.
First it's the state, then the city. Don't use spaces. So for example,
if you are looking for 5221 Keester Ave, Chicago IL 60638 you would do
the following.
1. Type il and then choose Illinois from the list of states.
2. Type Chic and then choose Chicago from the list.
3. Type kees and then choose Keester Ave from the list. Note that I
didn't suggest you type N or S. In short, for the most part don't use
the cardinal directions of an address when inputting into Navigon. There
are exceptions, but 95% of the time you leave them out.
4. Now type 5221 and you will see in the list of choices. If thare
choices with North or South as part of the address, they will display
here along with the correct zip code.
I'd be happy to demo this on an audio podcast if requested.

I have had Navigon practically since it was first released. However, I do
not use it all that often.
One of my biggest issues with it is putting in addresses. I often like to
see where an address mentioned in the news might be relative to me. Many
times, all goes well until I enter the street number, but then I get the
argument the number does not exist or some such message. How can I simply
put in a street and address and expect it to be found. I mean, I am taking
the information right from a newspaper, etc., so you would expect something
close to that should be found. How does Navigon even know there is no 1492
Columbus street, and maybe there is not but there is 1527 Columbus.
The one other thing I wish I could do with any navigation app would be get
directions from one place I will be in the future to another. They all seem
to want to take you from your current location or nothing. If anyone knows a
way around this, I would appreciate it. Maybe someone familiar with
navigation apps who is looking to do a podcast has just gotten an
inspiration. It doesn't seem that sort of sharing goes on as much anymore.
