AT&T Navigator
iPhone App Reviews —
... After seeing the Tom Tom demo at Apple’s recent developer conference, I really liked the way maps and navigation looked in landscape on the iPhone. AT&T Nav only supports portrait view, so that is a bummer. As far as the maps themselves, they are downloaded through the cellular data network in real time and not stored on the device, which has some specific advantages and disadvantages. For starters, you don’t need to worry about updating the maps like a standalone GPS unit or an app with locally stored maps. ...

Unfortunately, TomTom CTO Peter-Frans Pauwels didn’t provide many details during that demonstration other than to say that TomTom for iPhone would be available “later this summer.” Macworld recently had a chance to talk with with Tom Murray, Vice ...

For the price, it's still reasonable, and Navigon has already updated its software—for free—a few times since launch, so who's to say that a good route summary isn't up next?

On the level it can't really beat the TomTom, but when it's $30 cheaper, it most certainly does. TomTom US & Canada for iPhone Product page; iTunes link I know some of you probably recall my ...
