Re: Be reasonable...

But at least Google Maps is correct. Methinks one would prefer accuracy over speed anyday.

Besides. "Speed" is a relative term. At what? Signal fix? Downloading the maps?

Google maps has to use your browser's connection. The iOS 6 maps app is native. Can you really blame Google maps for Safari's shortcomings?

Re: No, not exactly (Doublefail)

Actually they are right. I am not going to spend on a separate nav system when I have one in my phone which works well enough.

As a guy, I know most times where I am headed, its only the occasional time when I am on the road when I need to look up an address or "street view" something to see what the building I am looking for looks like.

Also, if I am headed to an event or something (say a Meetup group event), I can click on the address in my Meetup app and it shows me where the location is on maps. Doing that with a nav system would require me to take down the address, manually put it in the GPS and then look it up?

Car GPS sales are steadily going down, its because people have cellphones which perform the same function.
