Unlike the other programs here, all routes, live weather and traffic information - the latter included as part of a one-month trial - are downloaded to the phone from a server. Route calculation is therefore slower, but the maps will always be up-to-date and the lifetime licence is for any phone, so no upgrades are required. Routing and display were good, although the POIs needed work, as many of the points were sponsored - so you're not getting an exhaustive list of the options available.
