It's okay, not great. It's by far the best Free one I've found. The US
maps it downloads are fairly good. The text parts of the display kind of
corrupt themselves momentarily sometimes and then recover, the actual
routing is the flakiest part, and sometimes the address it shows is of a
road or cross-street that passed near you lately. But, if what you
mostly want is a map that moves along with you and keeps track of where
you've been, roadnav's good, at least enough that I stopped looking
after I found it. I figure I'll wait a while and the routing stuff will
get better over time.
