PDF Expert & ReaddleDocs Updates with SugarSync support

Cloud based storage services are becoming increasingly important and Readdle is there supporting all the most popular ones.

Navigon Is Having a Sale
The built-in Google Maps App is great! While it does give you directions from point A to point B, it doesn't give you turn-by-turn voice directions and it requires a data connection to work. Navigon MyRegion Apps provide you with true turn-by-turn voice directions and the built-in maps mean that you don't have to have a data connection to use the App. There are tons of great features in this App and the reason I'm recommending the MyRegion version is that most of us don't drive all over the whole country. These Apps are moderately priced for your particular region and if you ever need either of the other two regions you can add them on at any time via an in-app purchase.

Thanks for the heads up Terry. I got the Navigon app awhile ago when you posted a sale by them. By far my favorite GPS app. I wanted one when you reviewed the hardware unit way back when. Almost bought it twice. Then when the iPhone app came out it was a no brainer. Many thanks for test driving it for us and the thorough review. On a separate note, I don’t really see what SugarSync does that dropbox doesn’t. Dropbox also has a free tier which I use to great success. Sounds like SugarSync is dropbox but more expensive, or am I missing something?
Hi Toby,
Thanks! I’m not a SugarSync user so I haven’t compared it to anything else. Not sure what it has or doesn’t have that Dropbox does. Perhaps just another option for people that want it?
Terry, am I missing something? Is there a need for both the Navigon app *and* the Magellan hardware?
Gregory,
there is NO requirement for both.
