Google Shakes Things Up With Google Navigator for Android
I love when rumors come true! We told you that Google was rumored to be working on a full fledged GPS navigation app to rival TeleNav. Turns out they just announced it. It is called Google Navigator and will be available for Android only at first. You can read all the official goodness at this link or more about the product at this link.
All I can say is that this looks awesome and I cannot wait until Google graces the BlackBerry with this app. I tried once driving while using Google Maps and it was a disaster. Google Navigator has everything including 3D views, turn-by-turn voice guidance and automatic rerouting. The only downside is that it does not cache map data on your SD card. I think the only way TeleNav, TomTom, and Garmin are going to compete with this is if they start letting you preload maps on your BlackBerry.
You really have to see it to believe it after the jump:
