AT&T "blocks" the BlackBerry Maps application, which is almost as good as the $10/month TeleNav utility they want you to shell out for.  Fortunately, if you change to a non-AT&T theme, the app shows up again.  So between BlackBerry Maps and Google Maps, you get everything except voice navigation.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Salsa Shark]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 5th 2009 3:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on RIM buys Dash Navigation]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/rim-buys-dash-navigation/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/rim-buys-dash-navigation/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's the logos.

I hope RIM keeps it alive, if for no other reason than that I want my money's worth out of it. When I get my Palm Pre, though, I may just use its GPS service and give the Dash to my GF. (It is rather bulky, sadly.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ackthbbft]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 4th 2009 6:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on RIM buys Dash Navigation]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/rim-buys-dash-navigation/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/04/rim-buys-dash-navigation/</guid><description><![CDATA[Dash was brillant in concept but crappy 1st gen hardware and a unfinished OS kicked it into the dead pool before release.
