CoPilot Live North America was, to me, an unknown GPS app. Perhaps that's why I was so pleasantly surprised. I think I found a new favorite GPS App.

WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY ABOUT COPILOT
PDA 24-7 Spectacularly good - it is hard to comprehend the value buried in this application. It is the very best satellite navigation solution available on the iPhone at this time.
Stuff Magazine STUFF HOT BUY: CoPilots finger-friendly icons are well suited to touchscreen smartphones. The menu system is intuitive and the map is clearly readable at the wheel. We cant fault its on-road performance either. But its the live functionality thats the clincher.
