| GPS Software Anyone know of a software only (not with GPS receiver, already have one) that will give me audible directions, I don't mind paying, but apps like ALK Copilot is 200 bucks just for the software, I figure someone here would know of something a little more reasonable. Any help would be great, thanks in advanced, |

| when you view the product on the software page it says the Q is available....
edit: i cant see them posting software that isnt compatable...it might not just be listed as 'Q' on the list installing program...it could be listed as Motorola Q |

I use Windows Live Search. It is not full turn by turn but it does give a system BEEP when a turn is coming up and its free (actuall an awesome little ap).

| Mapopolis is $99 for the whole US, and does audible active guidance. I don't really like the layout on the Q though. The navigation bar for upcoming turns takes up about 1/3 of the screen because of the landscape layout. I really like Route 66, but it's $150 for the software.
