I installed the Co-Pilot app on my G1, but the maps wouldn’t download correctly. 3 download attempts over WiFi all resulted in a long wait while the app downloaded tons of data. After all that, it just a gave an error and quit each time. I bought an 8 GB SD card just to install the maps. I also installed Co-Pilot Central and tried downloading with my PC, but I got the same result. I contacted tech support by email, but they didn’t even reply. Terrible service and non-functional software.

It’s much slower on my T-mobile G1 than what is shown here. It can sometimes take as much as 20 seconds for it to respond to button presses. Live Traffic is also not available in the U.S. Live Fuel prices advertised on their website also not available in US. There is also a street I drive on that’s name changed about 5 years ago that is still wrong on CoPilot’s maps. Software has a very nice interface, it just needs to be more responsive….and so does their support.

Yes, I wonder too, now you mention it. Just a random address near where I grew up.
