MapQuest Is Coming to a Cell Phone Near You ...

April 12, 2006

How about getting MapQuest on your cell phone when you're lost and won't ask anybody for directions?

Seems AOL is planning MapQuest Navigator, a mobile service in partnership with Telmap that will enable drivers and pedestrians to access GPS, turn-by-turn and voice-guided directions on their cellular phones. Launch date -- later this year.

According to the company, in addition to audible directions, the service will offer various features ranging from print-quality color maps (are cell phone printers coming soon?) to directions that factor in time and tolls.

    I can't wait for this. It will be a great addition to any cell phone. Nobody likes to ask for directions!

    This is great service - but Mapquest is not alone. Google provides this, too - and better yet - Google provides this almost worldwide, which Mapquest does not do...
