Voice prompt navigation vs. spoken road navigation. I am WAY more concerned with the routing being correct than the phone mispronouncing a street name.
The routing is on par. The voice prompts are sufficent for me.
Can I ask for further clarification? I don't get the "voice prompt navigation vs. spoken road navigation" part.
I wasn't commenting on mispronounced street names; Nokia Drive didn't say the street names at all, at least for the one time that I tried it.
Right - a voice prompt "turn left in 200 feet".... "turn left" is sufficent for me. I don't need "turn left a (some bad text to speech of the street name) in 200 feet"
The routing and map quality is much more important than the parlor trick of doing text to speech on the names.
OK. I need the street names to be announced. The streets are very close together in the DC area sometimes and there is no way that I know which one is at 200 feet without the name being announced.
It will announce the turn just before you need to turn. "Turn Left"... it will say that only after you pass any other possible left turns.
