We managed to get hold of Garmin's latest smartphone program for this test (there's a server version for the Blackberry, too), but it's so new, no price is available yet. It looked and worked exactly like other Garmins, having one of the best interfaces around. Traffic and weather/forecast information were included as standard via a GPRS link, while there were lots of POIs, with each offering plenty of useful and relevant information. We would have liked to see more verbal directions and bigger zooms, but this is still an impressive package overall.
