Google on Wednesday revealed a free online navigation service that will be a part of its forthcoming Android 2.0 mobile operating system. It could also come to the iPhone, the company said, if given the green light by Apple.
A beta of Google Maps Navigation will arrive next week when the Motorola Droid smartphone debuts on Verizon’s network. The service will be added to all other Android devices, as well, when they are formally updated to version 2.0.
Google said it would also like to support the iPhone with Maps Navigation.
