Google Looking To Extend Free Turn-by-turn Service To Europe
February 9, 2010 · Print This Article
Google has recently been offering free turn-by-turn navigation for Android phones in the US, and while that is great, our friends on the other side of the pond have had to manufacture do without for some day now. Fortunately Google seems to have been listening, and word is that Google has been working with a company in the Netherlands to bring said feature to folks by in Europe. Speculation is that the company might be Navteq (which is owned by Nokia), and the recent withdrawal of Navteq from the Android market
serves to further strengthen speculation. whether Google were to start rolling out its free turn-by-turn navigation in Europe, and perhaps extend it to Asia, companies that focus on GPS such as Garmin might start to shudder in fear.Permalink: Google Looking To Extend Free Turn-by-turn Service To Europe from Ubergizmo | Hot: Nexus One Review
