Using Google Maps™ to get directions
Use the Google Maps™ application to get directions when you travel by foot, public
transportation, or car. You can add a shortcut to a destination on your Home screen
to get quick directions from wherever you are.
When you view a map, you make an Internet connection, and data is transferred to
your phone. So it's a good idea to download and save maps to your phone before
you take a trip. This way, you can avoid high roaming costs.
Sony does not warrant the accuracy of any directional services.

to get places. The directions are both spoken and displayed on the screen.
The Navigation application may not be available in every market.
