Garmin has finally released their long awaited GPS software for Windows Phone 7, called Garmin StreetPilot. This is a full blown navigation solution for your Windows Phone. It features premium features seen in their recently renewed nüvi personal navigators. Garmin StreetPilot is currently available for $39.99 in the Marketplace.
Great to see a real navigation solution on Windows Phone!
Here is the full description:
Download Garmin StreetPilot® and get Garmin® navigation, similar to the premium features on Garmin’s renowned nüvi® personal navigators. Designed exclusively for your Windows Phone, this application works on both 3G and EDGE networks and turns your device into a GPS navigator with turn-by-turn voice-prompted directions.
With Garmin StreetPilot®, you’ll always have access to the most up-to-date map data available. And to minimize data usage, maps are downloaded on demand for areas relevant to your route. Garmin StreetPilot® also includes real-time traffic updates at no extra cost. So you’ll know which areas to avoid as you travel.
Garmin StreetPilot® stores map data on your device so you can continue to view route details as you travel in and out of coverage areas. In addition, Garmin StreetPilot® lets you browse maps that have already been downloaded and stored on your device. Instead of downloading additional data for areas outside your travel area, Garmin StreetPilot® only accesses the map data you need to navigate your route.
Features include:
Always up-to-date maps for the U.S. and Canada, downloaded to your device on demand
- Voice-prompted, turn-by-turn directions including street names
- Real-time traffic updates included at no additional cost
- Automatic map storage so you can browse maps you’ve recently viewed outside of data coverage areas

- Lane assist with junction view for complicated interchanges
