Here is a video of CoPilot and TomTom apps being tested on an HTC HD2 with WinMo.
Looks pretty sleek. However with CoPilot landscape mode isn’t all the efficient for making use of that screen. TomTom does a better job. HTC HD2 is a giant phone by the way…

New York Times’ Eric Taub just recently reviewed four iPhone GPS apps.
TeleNav’s AT&T Navigator, Alk’s CoPilot Live, Navigon’s MobileNavigator, and TomTom’s iPhone app. I know we’ve talked about all these many times here on Navigadget before but maybe you just want to hear it all over again from NYTimes.
…According to a report from the iSuppli research firm, GPS applications for smartphones are about to explode, growing from 2.5 percent of users today to 10.5 percent in 2013. And half of those will be iPhone owners…

A couple of months ago Gizmodo did a comparison of different GPS navigation applications for the iPhone. They now have a part II for that. This time they’re covering more of the “second tier” applications – just because they’re a bit cheaper, and not as well advertised. Anyhow – we have all the iPhone GPS navigation apps listed here.
The GPS navigation apps reviewed are CoPilot Live from ALK, Gokivo GPS Navigator from NIM, and Sygic.

We have already announced the CoPilot Live for iPhone a while ago, and even recently here but never had a chance to talk about its performance.
There’s a review of it here which says it is really really worth the £25 in the UK. The app is just super easy to use, every thing works the way it is supposed to, and the maps and ETA estimates were dead on.
I’d heartily recommend this App based on basic usage, and I’d suspect the more advanced features will be good too…

It seems like all we do these days is talk about iPhone GPS navigation apps. Maybe this how standalone sat nav devices will become obsolete.
Anyhow – today ALK introduced their iPhone GPS navigation application called CoPilot Live which is already available in the U.K. for only £ 26. It is unlimited and there’s no monthly fee. This version contains only UK and Ireland maps but U.S. and other European countries are on the way. The full European version will cost £60 by the way.
What features? Here is what CoPilot Live can do:

Navigon will be announcing their GPS navigation system software for the Android platform in August – Navigon MobileNavigator 7.
A 30 day trial version will be available for free which will even include speed limit warnings, and POIs along the way. There will also be a pedestrian version of the GPS navigation system included in this trial version.
You may find a restaurant through the recommendations of the social network Skobbler, and can also save rating and even send them directly to the communication tool Twitter.
Navigon MobileNavigator 7 for Android will be completely over the air. The maps are stored on a server and routes are also calculated by the server and then downloaded to your device. Of course you’re strongly advised to have a high speed data service on your phone before anything else.
This will be the first time for Navigon to offer such GPS navigation platform over the air. Navigon will be competing with the U.S. publisher ALK which already sells its navigation software CoPilot Live 8 for Android smartphones. Navigon MobileNavigator for Android goes on sale in August for 69 € with regional maps and for 99 € for the complete European version…

If you’ve been waiting for a GPS navigation application for the Android platform (other than TeleNav, and CoPilot) your wait is now over. Trimble just released an application called Trimble Outdoors that turns TMo’s G1 into a full-featured GPS navigator and geotagging tool for hiking, backpacking, fishing and other outdoor activities.
The application is best used with the site www.trimbleoutdoors.com which lets users review and plan trips online, send routes, maps and waypoints wirelessly to the G1, use the phone as a GPS navigation system to guide outdoor adventures, and tag pictures with geolocation, text, and audio and share them online.
The application will let you get maps of your location, track a certain route using breadcrumbs, and mark and edit waypoints along the way. And of course Trimble Outdoors features a digital compass showing coordinates, speed and heading.
You can pick up Trimble Outdoors from Android Market for $20 but apparently that’s the introductory price.
