After Garmin Mobile found its way onto one of my phones, my standalone GPS unit quickly found itself gathering dust. I’m not one of those guys who likes to wear a utility belt and a bag of chargers just to carry a bunch of separate devices; just pack’em all into one, and I’m good to go. Unfortunately, the 10 dollar monthly fee associated with the service can really start to wear on your wallet after a while — especially when you consider that no matter how long you subscribe, you’ll never actually own the application.
Why would I get this instead of Google Mobile Maps? I use that all the time on my Blackberry and it works great.
