Seems to be a day for GPS.
GPS maker Telenav is bringing a rather good-looking turn-by-turn navigation app to the Android loving G1 this month.
The service, which will cost Americans $10 a month, looks like it’s got what you’d expect from a standalone GPS unit: You get voice-recognition for hands-free control, live traffic updates, a hefty POI database including restaurant reviews and petrol prices as well as a swanky 3D interface.
I just can’t seem to find any news regarding UK/Europe yet.
What would be a great deal is if they chuck in a car charger and cradle.
I’m guessing that the G1’s battery would take a real spanking if this is used for more than the commute.
The app will be out on February 24 with a free one-month trial before the monthly charges kick in.

I’ve been trying to get some information out of them about when it will be available in the UK, since it was launched on the 24th. They haven’t been responding to my emails. It’s really frustrating knowing that the software exists, works on my phone, but I can’t have it yet.
