I recently picked up the Navigon software for the iPhone 3Gs and I really like it. Slick interface, good graphics and it can use the built in Contact list. 2D and 3D maps, voice commands, a large database of Points of Interest and all the maps are stored on the device so it still works outside of cellular service.

Now I just need to get a windshield mount and a car charger cable and the Exige will have navigation.

I'm holding out for the TomTom app.

I have it and it works very well. Two thumbs up.

...i can't handle the distraction of using my phone while driving, nor any sort of loose items in the cabin, much less a visual display...

Just out of curiosity, what features does the Tom Tom have that the Navigon doesn't?

So in other words, not much at all. The hardware base that they're offering in addition to the software has a lot of interesting features, but the software itself doesn't seem to offer anything more than the Navigon. What am I missing?

I like xGPS , not quite as pretty though.
