Bionic and VZ Navigation...

[un4givablelol]

I will be receiving my new DROID Bionic tomorrow! I have just one question. I haven't been with Verizon in a VERRRRRY long time. The last phone I had with them was a LG Chocolate. When I was purchasing my plan and all that good jazz on the Verizon site I noticed VZ Navigator...$9.99. Ummm no thanks. I am coming from the Sprint network and a Nexus S 4G...I had Google Maps and Navigation. I am assuming this is still the case with Verizon and any/all Android phones. Why pay $10 more a month for VZ navigator when we have Gmaps and Navigation...or am I terribly mistaken and will not be able to use navigation for free????

Maps and Navigation are free, root and freeze VZ Navigator

VZ navigator is for people who have extra money and don't know any better. Google maps and navigation ftw

Thanks guys. I rooted my Nexus with in an hour of owning it. I already have the files downloaded to root this Bionic. Now all I need is some CM7 love. Def. good to know I won't have to spend $10 buck on a nav. for this piece. I hope I like it coming from the Nexus S though. I've never really cared for the PexTile displays. We'll see...
