Default Blackberry Sat Nav

OK, for all the knowledgeable BB folk on here.

I have the curve 8900.

Is there any decent sat nav available for this phone?
Preferably free, however I'll pay if need be.

The maps application is a bit naff - maybe I just don't know how to use it properly?

Cheers,
Shaun

Mine came preloaded with Vodafone Satnav which works pretty well, I get 6 months free but believe you can subscribe to it.

You definately need to join our Scoobynet BBM group, i'm sure Snazy will sign you up if you pm him!

IF you dont mind using vodaphone satnav on your phone (mines on T-mobile) and still use it, its FREE!

From your Blackberry got to http://vfuk.navigator.telmap.com/vfu...s_bes_full.jad

Don't know - I'm still a bit of a BB virgin

There were 2 verrsions though, 1 which I downloaded and the other mentioned BES server version.
I just presumed the one I downloaded was the standalone version

I read that basically people were saying that if the first link doesn't work on the Amaze download then try the second link.

The second link worked - need to have a mess around with it now.
