GPS: TeleNav Confirms iPhone In-Car Navigation App
While they note it will be an App and NOT a subscription service from AT&T, there are a couple apps online already that say, "19.99 for ONE YEAR." So, technically TeleNav could charge up to $99 for a year of service.
Is it worth it to you at this "subscription" rate? If not, what would you be willing to pay? Yearly or once?07-10-2008 05:47 PMLike 0 - There's no way they would pass up on that. I will give AT&T props for not crippling the GPS like Verizon does (thereby forcing you into VZNavigator) but yes, they'll be whoring TeleNav for $9.99 per month I'm sure. On the bright side, I currently have & use it on my BB8310 and it really is a great navigation service. Maps are as updated as they get, search function is good, and the routing & rerouting, even over EDGE, are practically real time. Very happy with it and I'll pay $10/month X 24 months = $240 total versus say my GF's Garmin Nuvi 260 which runs $220 off Amazon and then will require map updates @ $75 a pop over the next two years. I get a cell phone allowance so it's free via TeleNav and when you travel a lot for a living, trust me - one less thing to loose, carry, charge, etc. is a Godsend. If you're a frequent business traveler, you'll understand. I just want to get off the fuggin' cattle car, get my rental car (Avis First is sweet - they'll get to you sooner than you can pull the card all the way out with keys, a newspaper and what slot # your car is in), punch in the hotel I'm staying at, throw the phone on the dash and let it does it's thing. $6 iPod grippy mat works great for the blackberry currently - stays rolled up & in the briefcase for trips.07-10-2008 07:41 PMLike 0
- JeremyRetired ModeratorI don't see what is wrong with the current google maps and gps on the phone already... Sure turn by turn would be nice but I've used the gps as is a few times and it's fine. Quick glance at the screen to see where you are going, etc... I'd never pay for turn by turn. Just my opinion.07-16-2008 04:48 PMLike 0
