AT&T today announced the availability of AT&T Navigator Global Edition, a GPS-based service that provides international navigation capabilities. AT&T Navigator Global Edition can be used in 20 countries on AT&T-powered smartphones featuring built-in GPS capabilities. AT&T Navigator Global Edition’s coverage area includes most countries in western Europe, North America and the U.S. Caribbean as well as the six cities in China that will host Beijing Summer Olympics events.

AT&T Navigator Global Edition provides customers with many of the same features as AT&T’s domestic GPS-based navigation service, AT&T Navigator. Customers can get spoken or text-based turn-by-turn directions - in English, German, Italian or Spanish - and are rerouted automatically if they miss a turn.

AT&T Navigator Global Edition also features a local “business finder” service, which allows customers to find the locations of businesses by category or by specific name with the click of a button using AT&T Navigator’s GPS-based navigation capabilities. AT&T Navigator’s business finder database contains more than 19 million businesses and services located in the U.S. and abroad, including ATMs, hotels, restaurants, gas stations and airports.

AT&T Navigator Global Edition will be particularly useful to customers traveling to China in August for the Summer Olympics. AT&T customers will be able to use AT&T Navigator Global Edition in the six cities hosting Olympics events - Beijing, Shanghai, Qingdao, Shenyang, Tianjin and Qinhuangdao. AT&T also is providing AT&T Navigator Global Edition service to select athletes and their families and to the eight grand-prize winners in AT&T’s “How Are You Connected” to Team USA sweepstakes.

AT&T Navigator Global Edition, which includes domestic service, is available through AT&T retail stores nationwide and AT&T direct business sales channels for $19.98 per month. The new international navigation service is available in conjunction with the domestic AT&T Navigator solution on the AT&T Tilt, BlackBerry 8800, BlackBerry 8820, BlackBerry Curve 8310, BlackBerry Pearl 8110, BlackJack II and MOTO Q 9h global smartphones.
