A friend is running tom tom navigator 6 on his n73, with voice commands, and he's told me I cant use it on my n95
Does anyone know where i can get something I can run on the n95?

The Nokia Maps application will do basic maps and location finding for free. If you want route planning and voice guidance, you can buy these for prices ranging from £1.50 a day through to about £60 a year (the phone gives you the precise prices when you try and access the service).
A good free GPS application is Nav4all. Just go to
http://www.nav4all.com on your mobile.
Be aware: Nav4all (as with most phone based GPS apps) does download maps as and when it needs them, so you may need a good data plan on your mobile.
Nokia Maps does this as well, but Nokia do provide a map downloading util that you can run on a PC,and then upload the map(s) on to the phone.
Tom tom, AFAIK, will run on the N series phones, but will not use the internal GPS. I have to say AFAIK, as I don't want to install a cracked copy, there is no demo available and I am not willing to pay a lot of money just to find out if I like the software or not.
