TeleNav Intros HTML5 Browser-Based, Voice-Guided, Turn-by-Turn GPS Navigation Service
Similar to TeleNav's GPS navigation application, the HTML5 navigation service will include full-color moving maps, audio directions, and automatic rerouting if the driver misses a turn. TeleNav's HTML5 navigation service will be free for both developers and consumers and will support all major mobile platforms. TeleNav would like to partner with select developers to test the service. Interested mobile website publishers and app developers can apply for early access by visiting TeleNav's website at www.telenav.com/developer/HTML5. TeleNav expects to publicly launch its HTML5 service in early 2012. Consumers will not need to be current TeleNav customers but will need to have an HTML5-compatible feature phone or smartphone.

That is pretty cool, this just goes to show the power of HTML5 and what is also nice is the maps can always be updated. This app should also natively run on Windows Phone since I believe their apps are HTML5 based. |

Yeah what draco says is true but i think the coolest part is that its free to all app developers that want to integrate it into their apps, so i could go and use it in whatever i wanted to. I can just a distant future where every wednesday i go on a gps guided tresaure hunt. :) |

This is good that the iphone finally has a good turn by turn nav app. I love google nav, its kept me from having to buy a GPS. |
|
That is really neat. Each time I see an HTML5 demo, I'm amazed at what developers are coming up with. |
|
HTML5 has all of that potential and yet there are barely any websites out there that use it. Nice to see a GPS app showing us what HTML 5 can possibly do. |

HTML really is making an explosion on the internet scene now |
