Verizon today announced VZ Navigator, a new service that will provide directions and locations of nearby services to subscribers using aGPS enabled phones. When a user launches Navigator, the network and GPS satellites will determine his location. That data can then be used to locate nearby businesses such as restaurants or banks, and can also be used to provide turn by turn directions to a destination. The service is initially available on the newly launched Motorola V325; Verizon has not promised the application for additional handsets. Navigator will cost $10 for a month of unlimited use, or $3 for 24 hours. Sprint has already launched a similar service for most of their new handsets.
