Google map works with internal gps. So does other nav (mostly asia-based) like mapking, navfone, route66. I think Tom Tom is resisting to make their software compatible with internal GPS due to other reasons rather than technical.

And not forgetting other non navigation software like Sports Tracker, photo Geo Tagging. I think the API for using the internal GPS is availabel for developer to build apps.

I have Google Maps on my N95 8GB and yes it uses the telephonic network... but if you peep into OPTIONS... then TOOLS...There is a option to use GPS... and it does work with the internal GPS module of the N95....
Just not sure which version it is...but downloaded via the n95 from google...

Well the best GPS for the N95 has to be GARMIN XT which works like a breeze and turn by turn is all bundled in the price.

i tested it with wifi, when i was in different places in the town. i would never use it with data connection, only with built in gps. the one of nokia isnt that bad for fun, but i prefer i-go in wm devices if it is.

Garmin mobile XT works just fine on my n82. I can say its one of the best for mobile devices. of course it comes with a price, but do a little google and you might find a way to install it without paying anything
