Where is the Turn-by-Turn GPS

[OGizME]

Is there a Turn-by-Turn GPS app on the G1?

I have the App STEEL which is another Browser offered on the android Market, It is able to Auto-Rotate without having to remove keyboard, what app or when will there be a app able to do this on any menu screen or app, text, dialer ect..

What I understand from different forums is that google is not allowed to do turn by turn as they need to license out the maps.

So officially i think it will not come on the app market, but unofficially ?

found the part:



Yes (unlike AndNav2), AndNav1 does not provide realtime-routeguidance!

The Android/Google Maps Terms of Service disallow any realtime routeguidance based on a sensor. Which is what a navigation-application is in the common sense does. The reason for that are the various data-providers (liek NAVTEQ, Teleatlas, NASA, etc...) that earn a lot of money, by selling licenses of their data to navigation-system manufacturers like TomTom, Garmin and all the others. Google didn't buy such a license from every provider and so we cannot implement such a system, even tough it is possible!

so unofficial is possible. i am sure in due time a dev will make a awesome UNOFFICIALLY
