Google Maps + Vodafone internet = Nice combination

Navigation software providers have really got a problem. With Google maps now offering free maps for almost all mobile devices and street view + turn by turn navigation for android powered devices, and Vodafone offering 500MB of data traffic for roughly 4€/month I really don’t see a point in paying for GPS navigation software. Sure you have to download the map data off the internet, but that’s got its good part: it’s always up to date and with numerous points of interest from Google. Also Vodafone seem to keep to their word of offering mobile internet wherever you are. I’ve been driving through the mountains last week and apart from some really remote roads I seemed to have at least GPRS connectivity everywhere. Now that’s rather impressive.

Bottom line is I could very well find my way just relying on Google maps, that sounds promising :)
