there are several... i.e. mapquest (www.mapquest.com).. but also check google maps (www.google.com)

the latter one is noteworthy since using the triangulation method (not using GPS) allows you to get better directions when in use indoors (underground downtown complexes like PATH in Toronto, Canada or COEX in Seoul, Korea)
It also works better in urban areas with lots of high rises and buildings where GPS receiver cannot lock to satellite signal due to signal shadow.

they're not free, but some include OnCourse Navigation, TomTom & Garmin XT. i've used all 3 and they work great for real-time driving directions. i have a Sprint Touch and i'm using the Freedom Mini Bluetooth GPS receiver. if you want to go the free route, consider Windows Live and Google...both will work with your GPS receiver,
