Jealous of your Android-toting friends with their slick Google Maps Navigation service? Well, a new GPS app has arrived for the iPhone 4 and it's also free... for 30 days.
TeleNav has released a new version of its GPS app for the iPhone and in addition to providing the usual navigation and POI searches, the constantly-updating app allows users to get restaurant and service ratings, reviews and other information directly through the app. But naturally, there's a rub.
The app is free for 30 days and after that you're charged either $21.99 for a year of service or pay-as-you-go for $2.99 a month. If you opt to keep those few ducats in your pocket, you can still use the GPS mapping and local search – the same as the pre-installed Google Maps application. And if you're packing an Android device, the TeleNav app is available as well, but only if you're hooked up with Verizon and are willing to shell out $19.99 a year before the end of the month. After that, the service goes up to $39.99 each year. Hit the jump for the full details and pick up the iPhone app at the Apple App Store or the Android version through the Android Market.
