Navigon, the iPhone GPS which we showed in a preview version last month, is now available for purchase.
At $69.99 (and it goes up to $99.99 on August 15), it’s a fair bit more than most software featured at Lifehacker, but if you’re already sporting an iPhone, then it’s still cheaper than a standalone GPS. I’m not personally an iPhone user so I haven’t tested it; if you do give it a try, share your experience in the comments.

Sunday, August 30, 2009 at 10:39 PMHaha, I was referring to the author, but it’s still relevant. How can you post on this website and not have the revolutionary iPhone? Sometimes I get the feeling this place is a little too Google-friendly just for the hell of it.
Btw, this app is pretty darn good, just like having a real GPS without lugging around the extra unit. Now I can’t wait for the cradle!

I will get this app with AUS mapping as soon as i need to over here.

Friday, August 21, 2009 at 2:07 PMI Can Say I Have Been Using This Application For The Last Few Weeks In Australia, The Routing Is So Much Better Than Sygic, Although There Appears To Be No Speed Limits In The App Yet. Where As Sygic Has This, Its A Little Off Sometimes But Normally Good.
This Is A Great App & I Would Recommend It.
