Official Thread: Samsung Galaxy S (I9000)

it is expensive, isn't there a trial version somewhere

Search the Android market, last I checked Co Pilot Live 8 was about R100 cheaper there...

That's if you know how to root and use Marker Enabler to get paid apps.

Just be aware of the GPS issues.

I tested it this morning using Copilot 8.
On my Galaxy S the GPS gets a fix quickly and accurately while stationary, but once moving the tracking is a problem, with the track jumping all over the place and the route snapping the wrong roads, especially when making several turns.
This is a known problem with all Galaxy S variants.
Hopefully this will be resolved it the Froyo firmware update, but its performance as a road GPS is disappointing a.t.m.

If anyone finds a fix in the meantime, please share :-)
