Q.
A. download to the radio and it will allow you to navigate using Garmin on the radio and getting the internet from your phone
Garmin® Navigator turns your Android phone iPhone into a personal GPS, with features from the nüvi® personal navigators from Garmin, the IFA 2012 �App of the year� winner and leading US provider of personal navigation devices. With no data charges on the Telstra network after downloading the app and no ads, Navigator includes free basic navigation with premium features requiring a subscription or day pass.
FREE features include:
- Driving and walking directions that track progress on a map
- Always up-to-date maps for Australia with millions of included points of interest
- Navigate to addresses in your Contacts
Apple�s mapping failure couldn�t have come at a better time for Garmin. With public transport options ready to go, Garmin have updated their Navigon app for iOS 6, complete with support for the iPhone 5�s taller 4 inch display. Garmin StreetPilot Onboard will also follow shortly with an iOS 6 update in the near future, complete with their alternative to Street View.
The public transport options include support for trains, trams, buses and water taxis, as well as Garmin�s new �Last Mile� feature, demonstrated at the IFA: consumer electronics trade show in Berlin earlier this month.
According to the Official Garmin Blog: �Users will be guided to a transit stop by foot and be able to look up detailed information on what line to take and where to get off. The new Last Mile function automatically saves the location of the user�s car when continuing by foot, making it easy to find it on the way back.�
Apple�s own mapping app provides links to third-party navigation and mapping apps to provide the missing public transport features. Garmin�s updated apps join the list of supported services, so you can jump from app to app as painlessly as currently possible. It�s not the ideal situation, but it�s currently the best option available until Apple�s native mapping experience is up to scratch.
It�s surprising that Apple didn�t choose to licence these features from the likes of Garmin in order to make their native mapping experience more feature complete, instead of delivering a half-baked app like they have this week. It�s possible that they may have tried and failed to partner with third-party mapping companies, although no rumours of such talks have ever leaked. Surely, Apple has some plans in the works other than to leave users wanting until Apple themselves catch up.
Based on the current negative attention iOS maps is attracting, Apple may be forced to strike a deal with a third-party to quickly bring the native experience up to parity with the competition. Google have already stated that they want to bring Google Maps to every possible platform, so it�s only a matter of time before we see an official Google Maps app in the iOS App Store. There have been rumours that Google already have an app awaiting approval from Apple, but this has not been officially confirmed.
Until Google or Apple bring a more complete mapping experience to the iOS ecosystem, it looks as though Garmin might be the best port of call for the time being.

Questions about the Samsung Galaxy Note?
Q. Okay I'm 14 and I really like that phone, I've compared it to the iPhone and I figured it would be better
But the problem is that my mom doesn't really like 2 year contracts, so she's always got my brother and I prepaid phones from walmart(I don't even want to use mine anymore)
So my questions are
1.How much does it cost with a 2 year contract
2.How much does it cost without a contract
3.What company's carry this phone
I'm hoping she would get it since she got me a 32G iPod and a prepaid phone that was nearly around 200 dollars(I never got use to it, because it confused me and til this day I don't now how to use it, the settings are just really hard to understand)

A. Hi there!
I just bought the Galaxy Note yesterday on a plan and its brilliant! I transferrd from an LG phone but all i have always used my family's Apple phones so i do indeed know the difference. Without going into too much detail, i will answer your questions for you!!
1. I got it on a plan (In Australia) but still it might be around the same price. Anyway i got a $75 dollar plan at Crazy Johns. That included TWO phones that were BRAND NEW from the market and they were both amazing. It also included $750 talk and data as well as around 4-5 GB of data per month. Not to mention unlimited text!
If it was just for the Galaxy Note, then i would of got the same deal except for $55 dollars per month.
Depends on where you live but usually plans like that are around the same price. Really amazing deal we did.
2. One of the shops we went to (Overall we went to: Vodaphone, Crazy Johns, Telstra, Optus, Virgin, TeleChoice, Allphones and a few more places) had it for under $600. I think he said it was $540 or so but thats AMAZINGLY CHEAP. Notes are usually around the same price of a Iphone, if not higher. They are almost always above 700-800 guaranteed. Thats why plans are much more better. You get them straight away with $0 upfront, you dont have to go out all the time to restock your credit etc. AND you can get just about any fine for a reasonable price.
3. In Australia where i live pretty much every shop stocks them. If not, then they will. This phone is hot on the market and every was googling at my phone when i showed them it. My entire family and a few other people (who used iphones) were incredibly jealous of me. They were practically cradling it the moment i showed them it. Here are the only people in Australia i know who stock them, not including ALL shops:Vodaphone, Crazy Johns, Telstra, Optus, Virgin, TeleChoice, Allphones, Samsung
Get this phone. Its brilliant and simple. It takes a moment or two to get used to whe you go from apple to Samsung but you WILL NOT REGRET IT! For Upcoming smartphones such as the Iphone 5, i cant tell you if it will be better or not. I DONT think they will have it BIGGER than the Galaxy Note but for the other specifications, i have no knowledge on.
I CANT EMPHASISE HOW GREAT THIS PHONE IS. STOP THINKING ABOUT IT AND GET IT.
Screen is incredible for gaming. Iphone FINALLY seems like a little girl compared to the Galaxy.
Definitely a WIN for Android/Samsung
