If your talking about the turn by turn and 911 assit ect... I believe it is three years complimentary but I am not sure of the costs after. I tried it a couple times and it is OK but I have a Garmin GPS and a MOTO Droid so searching for POI and navigating there are no problems for me.

There isn't a charge for 911 assist.

There is a charge for TDI (traffic, directions, and information).

Well if I knew what TDI stood for I would have understood.

Corrected on the 911 assit. I still dont have a need for any of the other stuff as it just goes through your phone the whole time and the quality of it is lacking. It is a nice effort though.

$69 per year after the first three years for the TDI only. The rest is through your cell phone and costs you nada except for cell phone fees..

Yeah, its not that good anyways, its slow to reroute, and you get no image, just words. For $30 more you could just buy a real gps unit, probably even the same if you looked for a good sale.

Ok, so $69 per year. Thanks. I am sure that by the time 3 years rolls around, it will be more. I think a gps would be a good investment. Thanks all for the input!
