VZ Navigator is a GPS navigation software for Verizon Wireless phones that turns the phone into a GPS navigation evice. It is a white label product based on Networks in Motion's AtlasBook mobile navigation platform. It is compatible with many recent Verizon GPS Phones, and available through Get It Now. It uses both GPS and cellular antennas through Assisted GPS. It supports turn by turn directions, local area searches to search for businesses, ATMs, gas stations, etc., favorites, messaging between VZ Navigator users (in order to share addresses and/or times of arrival), maps (including "Where Am I?") and multiple voices. It uses the user's phone connection to download maps and to do searches. Once the map and route are downloaded, the phone can manage its position along the path without reconnecting. This initial update usually takes about 5 to 10 seconds. However, if the user departs from his planned route, the mobile phone will automatically contact the server for a new one.
