Applications and software
General Applications:
Android market: Some people seem to be unable to access the Android market over WIFI. It seems you have to open port 5228 on your router if you want to successfully use the market through your wifi connection (for me it worked without this step)
Navigation:
From personal experiences I can recomment CoPilot which is available through the Android Market (and their website I think). To get access to the paid market see Market Enabler below (root required)
NDrive is an alternative although very exspensive (around $60, root required for paid version through market). The program does offer a 7 day trial (NO root required) and comes with a speed trap database.

Market Enabler:
The paid Android market is not yet accessible from SA, only the free one. You can still access the paid market but you need a little trick, used by hundred of thousands people worldwide. You need a rooted phone (see above, use at your own risk)) and you need to install a package called market enabler.
Get the file here:
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Internet-Utilities/Misc-Shopping/MarketEnabler-88713.shtml or search on google, copy the file onto your phone and install the package through the file manager. Allow root access and open the application which will allow you to "fake" various providers around the world giving you access to their paid markets. Remember to backup your settings in market enabler before faking another provider.
Developers only: An alternative way to install the app is to download the file here
http://rapidshare.com/files/358296169/MarketEnabler_v3.0.8.apk and push it onto the phone via adb. If none of what I just said makes any sense to you then rather leave it, you might brick your phone, void your warrenty and be stuck without a phone.
Use: adb install MarketEnabler_v3.0.8.apk
