Thought I'd share the experiences of using my HTC HD mainly as a GPS on a recent trip to the UK. It was brilliant! I previously had an O2 Exec and a separate SIRFIII GPS. Quite often I'd not be able to connect at times when I really needed to know which direction I needed to go in the Tasmanian bush. I'd used Destinator 6 on the O2 for road navigation and Memory-Map for offroad navigation. Both good. I bought the HD for the inbuilt GPS and found that Destinator no longer existed and that Route 66 looked like the best road nav option. I loaded Route 66 and Memory-Map onto the HD with European road maps and a slab of 1:50,000 Ordinance Survey maps for Memory map for Devon where I intended some walks.
Route 66 was brilliant in getting me out of London and to my hotel in Devon. Without it, I'd be stressed out of my mind! I always carry a little length of stiff wire and used this on the ventilator grill on the dashboard to help mount the HD. Works a treat! I wouldn't even think of navigating the country lanes in Devon without the HD and Route 66. My only complaint would be the slow satellite capture on cold start. Memory-Map is one of the most intuitive offroad nav programs I've seen (and I've been around for a long while and been responsible for serious mapping). Again, without MM and the HD, I would have covered more territory than I would have liked. It helped me find laneways, bridle paths and footpaths. It was just brilliant. So, the HD with those nav programs was nothing short of awesome.
