New Rom...Now GPS is Enabled...NOW WHAT???

Since the new ROM update, I still cant find a gps program that will allow you to use the phone's gps, instead of using a GPS reciever. What is a good one besides Googlemaps? I've downloaded the Mapquest Navigator and it doesnt work. I dont understand why sprint would sell it on the site, but wont tell u that you need a gps reciever. Someone help. Do you find this valuable?

Another application is Microsoft's Live Search, which you can get at wls.live.com. As for other GPS applications, most you have to purchase, so it depends on which application you are interested in. Another cool little tool is ChartCross' GPS test. It's a free download that just shows you how many satellites you've locked onto and what your current longitude, latitude, elevation, etc. You can get it here:
