That's a nice set of new features. I'm glad the price stayed the same.

Sprint added this first with their navigation software, correct? Glad to see Verizon is adding it too; hopefully, AT&T will follow suit and add traffic rerouting to their navigation service too. Competition really is good for us consumers!

This is so exciting! I used to have to buy/subscribe to Rand McNally's Traffic from GIN to get my traffic updates! Now I can save $2.49/month!

The Good news: They made all these enhancements without "upping" the price. The Bad news: The updated version won't be released on the Pearl ( not yet anyways ) and VZ Nav still isn't available for the OTHER VZW smartphones.

Verizon was the first to come out with navigation you idiot. This is just an upgrade. And the navi has its own interface, nothing like the phone interface. Oh yeh, its more precise then any tomtom or garmin that you can buy. Any other dumb comments?

Um, Yeah!!! Verizon has had VZ Nav for ever. I use it on my LG VX 8700 all the time. Works better than the nav on my car. lol

"Verizon was the first to come out with navigation you idiot" ?? I don't think so. I had navigation in my cars since 1999. I don't think the VZ Navigator has been out that long.

I finally figured out how to add addresses and look up businesses on the web and synchronize them to my Navigator's "Favorites". If anyone is interested here is the link: my.telenav.com
