I see the Garmin for iphone is $49.99...does that include updates? I read the description but didn't see it, although I could have missed it.

I too use Navigon. I have tried most of the other apps and Navigon is by FAR superior. In fact it's better than any GPS that I've ever used.

I have the Garmin Street Pilot. Not the free one. I paid $29.99 when it first came out. It is TBT and it updates for free. SO far it's had only 3 app updates that I can remember. Never had an issue with it working or crashing. And I use the iPod feature on that app too. I think it works very well. But I've always been a GARMIN fanboy...I admit...

+1 to the MotionX gps, I read lots of reviews online and this one got the most positive ones. Cheap enough, seems to work well.

Tried Waze, deleted it from my iphone after two uses.

I use a couple, waze is nice if it’s actually updated by current users (i.e. accidents, radar traps, red light cameras etc.) but for good turn by turn with integrated iTunes control I use MotionX gps drive. It does good TBT directions and you can have iTunes control on the screen, its supposedly integrated with siri but I haven’t figured that out yet.

The only problem I found with Waze is it requires a constant data connection for loading the maps. If you frequently have sketchy service or venture to places like that, you might wanna spring for the full-fledged $50 Garmin app on the store.

Navagon got me from Toronto, to Lake Erie, to Syracuse, to Manchester Vermont, then down NH, to Portsmouth Maine, then up to Granby Quebec and home...highly recommended.

I think I paid $65 in 2009 and has updated many times, including a whole new set of maps recently, with no extra charges.

In a pinch, the Maps works too.
