smart2go gets you where you need to go on the HTC Advantage

I was pretty impressed with the GPS receiver on the HTC Advantage, but the Google Maps application isn't that functional for routing and navigation compared to other dedicated 3rd party applications. As I stated back in February, Nokia made their new smart2go mapping solution available to owners of S60 and Windows Mobile Pocket PC devices. I just loaded it up on the HTC Advantage to try it out and while the fonts are not sharp on the VGA display, the program provides many more options than seen on Google Maps. Again, I was able to get a fix in my basement rec room within a minute or so and see lots of points-of-interest near my house. What is your favorite mapping application that you recommend I try on a Windows Mobile device?
