AT&T Navigator for iPhone 3.0 OS

AT&T Navigator

Well it appears to me that AT&T has jumped on board and created it’s own navigation application that gives turn-by-turn navigation. It only has a few reviews in the iTunes App Store, but most of them are favorable.

One review reads:

First of all, the maps are clean and accurate. The colorful map display seen on the app iTunes page only shows up when a route is planned, otherwise, the maps look a lot like Google maps. Directions are spoken nice and loudly including street names. Lane assist is not a feature. Maps are not downloaded which can be a problem when traveling in remote areas. I’ll be giving a good trial for one month but it is doubtful that I will keep it. This is good for those who only need temporary…GPS for a vacation or road trip without the expense of a stand alone GPS.

Concerning that last part, my response would be, “Ya think!” While the app itself is free, the monthly service is $9.99 per month, charged to your AT&T wireless bill. However, you can cancel at any time. The reviewer above gave the app three stars.

Personally, I’d give it 2 stars because I’d have to pay a monthly fee just to use it. Any thoughts on this fellow iPhone owners?
