It really baffles me that such a feature wouldn't be included in *any* mobile OS with map capabilities. (And please, let me know if I'm wrong somewheres.)

Recently converted to the G1 and I hope they release it for the G1. Its about $49/yr for voice turn by turn directions. A bargain :) I have their turn by turn direction software for my blackberry.

In a quick test getting a map from Boulder to Denver MapQuest seemed to load more quickly than Google Map. If the MapQuest site were to have access to my current location and addresses in contacts it would be even better. I hope they do make an app. MapQuest looks great on the G1.

But I'm happy with the built in Map app. It works perfectly fine and I'm sure it'll be updated as time goes on. Maybe they should work on a Application instead.
