pocketgpsworld.comTo mark the launch of the iPhone on the Vodafone Network thy have released a free navigation app in the iTunes Appstore.

The biggest surprise is that Vodafone have chosen to offer their own app rather than work a deal with TomTom.

Vodafone already work with TomTom on the HDTraffic service so it would seem to have been an obvious opportunity for them to white label a TomTom app.

Although it doesn't look the most attractive or featured nav app available it does come with turn-by-turn voice guidance and a UK map. Wayfinder appear to be the app authors with maps from TeleAtlas

And of course it is hard to argue with FREE right? Well there may be a catch........
