We hate getting lost on the road (especially when we have a GPS-phone by our side), and we love anything free. That’s why we love the new AmAze navigation software from LocatioNet. It’ll keep us from getting lost and it’s free!

This one goes out to our friends in the UK – LocatioNet is touting its AmAze software as being made specifically for UK highways and byways. Satellite images, map routing, weather forecasts, and even voice-prompts (if you’ve got the goods) it’s all there – as long as your GPS-equipped handset plays nice with J2ME apps.

But, like they say, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. In exchange for a free-of-charge download, AmAze will be serving up some nice, targeted advertising based on your specific location. No need to pay to activate the premium navigation services on your GPS phone, that’s just wrong.

If you want to give AmAze a whirl, head on over to www.amazegps.com and get your download on.
