Does anyone know if there is a phone that has both free wifi internet browser AND free turn by turn gps? I don't want to get a phone where I need an expensive data plan. They should have something like this by now, for Pete's sake - it's almost 2009! Wow, this is really neat.

It's a nice little tool, I love using it. Now, the only beef I would have with it so far is that long directions are split over multiple text messages. It may be technically necessary, but it does make it harder to follow. Tuyen, no problem. It’s a nice little tool, I love using it.

The only downfall, you need an iPhone (or if you needed one more reason to get one...) - the nice thing about this service is that it works with virtually every phone.
