The new Sprint Navigation 'powered by TeleNav' is great! Quite an upgrade from the TeleNav I had on my 7130 and 7100i.

Can you post the download link? I moved from an 8703e to an 8830 last week and could not get it to work. Called Blackberry T1 support and was told that the 8830 will not run Telenav...

Thanks

Is there anyway to download it to a PC and load via USB cable? My IT policy won't let me download direct to the phone from internet.

Hey All,

Thanks to Dynomite05's posted link, I was able to download, install and use the app. Got a question for those of you familiar with TeleNav. When I ran the app the first time I expected to be prompted for my mobile # & PIN like I did when I set it up for the first time on my 8703. However, I was asked for neither this time. Do you think that that my mobile number was read from the handheld and my account's good to go, or will it blow up after 15 days (download indicated 15 day trial)?

Thanks a million.

Actually I installed sprint nav powered by telenav, I guess that's what they want you to use. I don't like it as well as telenav I was using on my 7520
