It seems like all we do these days is talk about iPhone GPS navigation apps . Maybe this how standalone sat nav devices will become obsolete.

Anyhow – today ALK introduced their iPhone GPS navigation application called CoPilot Live which is already available in the U.K. for only £ 26. It is unlimited and there’s no monthly fee. This version contains only UK and Ireland maps but U.S. and other European countries are on the way. The full European version will cost £60 by the way.
What features? Here is what CoPilot Live can do:
- portrait or landscape display mode
- automatic route calculation
- 3D map displays
- turn-by-turn voice directions
- street maps are stored on the phone – not downloaded each trip
- including lane assistance
- realistic signpost displays
- speed limit alerts
- “Live” services include
- 5-day weather forecast
- CoPilot LiveLink that allows users to check to location of friends on-screen or online
- Real-time traffic information will be also available later in 2009 as an option
