The world's navigation software with voice guidance

Voice Guidance Software

Listed below are some popular street-navigation software packages/sources with voice guidance, hoping to initiate the discussion on the topic and to stimulate the wider use of PPC with GPS.

Although a bit outdated and intended for US/Europe packages, a useful comparison table is contained in

"With so many GPS Street Routing offerings it's important to show off the styles of maps used. Although most of the products use either NavTech or TeleAtlas maps, the maps and interfaces vary from one product to another.
With the Map Comparisons you can see exactly what each product looks like in a long table and also see the various levels of magnification on each map product."
