I use the AN300 car charger by

@mode, mange69 and xell, thanks for your comments.
I'm not using the
AN300 car charger... mine's a generic USB one which only outputs 500mA, which might explain the battery draining. I guess it might also explain why the phone gets hot (although I don't understand why), but in any case I'll invest in a AN300 and see what happens...

My car phone holder from Brodit, made for X10, came with a 1A charger and still the batt drains when using GPS for several hours.
I think the phone SW is set to just receive a certain amount of charging.

I'am using the same phone and Brodit Phone holder charger that I fitted my self the one with the wires behind the dash not using the cigarette lighter socket,you? I have used the google navigation and from what I cam remember was ok, but I did not use it for hours, I use it for more short journeys and use my tomtom for the longer journey due to Google Navigation not having your speed,road speeds and camreas, I will be doing a 4hr(London to Liverpool) jouney in 2 weeks will have tomtom and X10 Google Navigation on at the same time to see if this happens, But then I hope to have Android 2.1 by then and all things could change

I was hoping to eventually buy a satnav app (I'm favouring Co-Pilot at the moment) for my X10, but I thought I'd just test out the whole concept of using the phone as a satnav with Google Navigation before spending money on the app.
Given the problems so far I'm glad I haven't payed for a dedicated app! I ordered the SE AN300 car charger today so I'll try that out when it arrives to see if I get the same problem.
Interestingly, a search on Google reveals quite a few people with other Android phones who have also had overheating / shutdown / battery drain issues when using Google Nav. I guess it could be an issue with Google Navigation, in which case a dedicated app might be the solution...

I can really recommend Navigon app. It flows much smoother than the others. Otherwise Co-pilot is a good choise. Try out Navigon for free 30 days. Download it from Market. I bought it for approx 40€.
Cheers,

I use for Ndrive for GPS on my X10 and it's pretty good. No problems and very accurate.

That looks pretty cool. I hope they don't use that bottom bar in the final version though. It looks so bulky compared to the discrete bar we have at the minute.

^^ Pretty cool... looks like a First glimpse of some finality in the 2.1 software.... however timescape and mediascape appear to look the same... hopefully the xperience of using them would be "Smarter and richer" as
have promised!
