Bing turn by turn doesn't work in mango properly without hitting the screen to progress at each turn Todd.
Not exactly convenient, and downright dangerous if you're driving.
Apparently Navteq, the company that provides Bing map data, does not allow MS to provide proper turn by turn. Which is kinda messed up considering Navteq is owned by Nokia. Hopefully they can get that mess straightened out for the next update after Mango.Yeah there's some weird licensing issues that keeps Microsoft from offering turn-by-turn. I haven't heard anything about whether the inclusion of Nokia's Ovi maps will change that. If I do have to use Bing Maps I just rely on the GPS to track my position and follow the blue line.

Has this been confirmed? I find it irritating that no journalist has directly questioned MS about this so we can have an official answer. Especially some confirmation that it's coming now that Nokia and MS have been joined at the hip.
