Just been for a spin with Google Navigation

[Guest -Wii-]

Just so you know how it runs on the phone, to be honest with you I was reasonably impressed. It generally gave good turn by turn navigation with warnings for example in 100 metres, got me to the place I wanted to go, only thing I think needs improvement is the awful voice of the woman and perhaps it would be better if it said take 3rd exit rather than using road names which is pretty useless if you don't know where you are heading, however if you looked at the map it would be obvious but sometimes you cant always do that.

how did you get google nav to work?

i'm runing MCR r7wip - found the google nav app in the system but the phone told me that it's not available at my location ...

so its available on the island but not in austria???

or is there a trick on how to activate it?
