Navigation integration

Just wondering if there is anyway to launch a navigation app when clicking on someone address. For example if I'm in the address book and one of my contacts has an address in it. If i click on the address can it open a gps app? Right now it will only open the default maps app. I'm coming from an Android phone and they had this feature.

Thanks.

My nav app of choice - Navigon - will allow you to access your address book from within the app, and if there's an address associated with a contact - allow you to use that as an address for the app to navigate you to. Other apps may do this as well... I'm sure Garmin's StreetPilot does, TomTom does...

Edit to add: Garmin & Navigon apps are $10 off in the app store for Garmin's MacWorld promotion...
