Free Google Nav for iPhone in Development

Word on the street has Google confirming that they are developing a free navigation App for the iPhone which has been available for the Android system for some time now. This was confirmed at a press conference in the UK.

So while Google does not host the maps on the device, they, like others, pre-cache the entire navigation route on the phone ahead of the trip. The program can give you the ability to see maps, satellite views and even street views of your route in certain areas. very innovative, and has been met with mixed reviews. People love the Free part, and the usability questions are still at issue. Should be an interesting launch and aftermath. Let's hope that Apple doesn't find another obscure clause in the terms and conditions to block this Google App.
