Java capable phones. Fee is $9.99/mo. Here's a link with more details.

$120 a year? Might as well just buy the real thing...

Honey, I started off thinking about how nice it would be to have a GPS
system for only about $9.99 per month. Then I looked at the Garmin stuff
for about $1000, that's even better! Then I decided the BMW has the best
in-car Nav system. Look in the garage!

Why doesn't Sprint sell these damn applications instead of charging a
monthly fee? It is like you are leasing the software. I will never buy any
Sprint applications for this reason. If Sprint would provide a price to
purchase the application, then I might consider purchasing it.

Sure, go ahead and purchase the software, instead of getting it for
free, then you will still have to pay a monthly fee for the service that
the software is using.
