A new application called AndNav2 brings free real-time and turn-by-turn navigation capabilities to your favorite handset (the G1, of course). The release is public alpha, so be wary of bugs, but free is free and the developers sure look like they know where they want this project to go. Audible directions are also available with the included Text2Speech library. Apparently, small advertisements embedded in the application facilitate the free nature of the app, but they seem to be relatively non-intrusive. Address search, POI lookup and contact entry are all supported in the alpha. Check out a video below:
