|
|
ALK have today announced the immediate availability of CoPilot Live for Android-based phones.
CoPilot Live can be purchased direct from the Android Market and includes turn-by-turn navigation with voice guidance, 3D mapping, direct dialling POis, location sending via SMS, photo navigation and portrait/landscape modes.
CoPilot Live makes full use of the 'connected' nature of the Android phones and offers real-time traffic alerts, 5-day weather forecast information and a new location sharing service named CoPilot LiveLink'.
This is welcome news, it demonstrates that this version is not just a port of a PPC solution but instead has been designed to make full use of the facilities available and even adds new services. The same cannot so far be said of the iPhone equivalents released so far.
CoPilot Live is available in the Android Market accessed from your Android device at £25.99 for UK & Ireland and £59.99 for Europe.

Need this for iPhone please. With realtime traffic etc it sounds more fully featured than anything else we've had for iPhone so far. |

Hmmm £26 for UK, £60 for Europe - I'm pretty annoyed that my "special discount" price for an upgrade from CP6 to CP7 costs £94. I don't think the SD card warrants the extra £34 somehow, even leaving out the fact mine is an upgrade rather than an entirely new licence as with the Android version! |

CoPilot 8 (yes thats CoPilot 8) on the t-Mobile is amazing. Just brought it and am already starting to wonder what to do with my old TomTom device, it looks so ancient along side CoPilot.
Will do a full run down on the application once I've used it for a couple of days, but in the meantime this could be part of the collection of applications for Android that could give Apple, Palm, Windows and Symbian a bloody nose. |

Do you (or anybody else) know if the PGPSW speed Cams POI files are supported on the Android version?

Dox,
yes the PGPSW cameras are supported. I've posted a long and rambling thread on the cameras forum on my experiences so far. Not perfect, but I'm still experimenting... |
