NDrive Launches iPhone App - Europe and Canada
NDrive launched their iPhone application today for most of Europe and Canada; no word on a US launch. The application takes a few nice steps to add other features: 3-D buildings where available, integration with iPod for listening to iPod while navigating, the use of gesture control to zoom and pan - a nice natural addition that iPhone users are use to.

Very quick routing calculation algorithms
Route demo or map of route when trip planning
Alternative route selection options
Adventure mode for off-road, air or at sea use
Thousands of important buildings represented in 3D
