Did Google just make turn-by-turn GPS free?!

If this is the future of Google Maps on the mobile I'm all for an Android phone! I didn't really expect so many features, I would have been happy if the current version of Google Maps on the mobile had audio turn-by-turn prompts, but to integrate streetview and search into the app makes it a winner.

Oh and yes it is free. It comes with the new Android mobile phones. What is Garmin, Tom Tom, and the rest of the GPS makers do now?

Android does looks promising.

Google maps probably won't have extensive food reviews, ratings, events, etc. Therefore, it might not be enough to recommend u where to eat or go.
