Well from what i see is that Mapquest is a flop on the BB pearl. No mater what I did it would not follow, after donloading it just stays at teh same point of teh starting point and it is a no go.

Too bad, may be it would be best to try it when it is actualy available for us to try. Right now, with the new telenave (4.7) I like it more that Mpaquest based on what I have been able to see so far (forget following the rout) one thing I like about it is the address entry but like was said above it is not connected to teh address book. At the end it actualy stoped working with the GPS puck and the other programs could not access it. I had to reset the Puck and re-pair it with teh BB to work again. The 3 d map view and the detail in tlelmap is actualy better. Now one thing it has is that it actualy gets my house right on the map compared to telenav/navteq where it misses by about 500 feet (I had already filed a report to them on this). Same with Gmaps and BB maps. So lets put it this way, teh combo of BB maps and telenav we have the best of both worlds and hopefully BB maps get voice and we will then be set and no more telenav. Or may be wait for GMpas to add this functionality.
the stats: 3 mintues to download rout compared to 1 minute on telenav and 1.10 for BB Maps. I tried a re-rout on Mapquest and it took again 3 minutes while Telenav's was about 15 seonds. By the way, mapquest did not update my location from the rerout start point (I am attributing this to the none ability to keep up with the curent location.
