For those of you who would like to try a navigation app besides Google Maps on your Android device, Mapquest is now available for download in the Android Market.

Mapquest supports voice commands so that you can directly talk to the app and ask for directions. It also has turn-by-turn navigation and live traffic data that refreshes every 5 minutes. Mapquest for Android will probably receive an update in the future that will include the personalized “My Places” feature that the iPhone currently has.

You can download Mapquest for Android for free from Android Market. Or, you can hit the break and scan the QR code that the folks over at Mapquest made out of Legos!

That’s the correct weblog for everyone who is would like to get hold of out with this topic. You realize a great deal its nearly exhausting to argue on hand (not that I actually would want…HaHa). You undoubtedly put a new spin with a subject that was discussing for decades. Nice stuff, just great!
