Google Navigation will come to iPhone, but only if Apple approves

Google Maps iPhone

Google which announced Google Maps Navigation for Android 2.0 yesterday, told today that Navigation could also come to the iPhone, if and only if Apple approves it.

In an article to AppleInsider yesterday, Google said “Apple is a close partner, we would like to support the iPhone with Maps Navigation. Millions of users experience Google Maps on the iPhone. We will continue to work with Apple to bring innovation, including Latitude and Navigation, to users but you will have to speak to Apple about its availability”.

However, with the recent dispute between Google and Apple over the banning of Google Voice App from the App Store where Google claimed that Apple had formally rejected the application and Apple shot back that they are still checking out the application and have not rejected it yet, I highly doubt that Google Maps Navigation will ever make a debut on the iPhone.

    yup Apple is a suck up in that way. They want to create a monopoly in everything they do…..that way they suck and are always localised to a small section of the market!!!! Android will easily crush iphone in 2 years from now , mark my words, all fanboys out there!!!!
