1. Welcome

TeleNav™ 5.1 utilizes the integration of GPS position determination technology, the Java™ programming
environment, and access to your wireless carrier’s data network. With regard to GPS location information:

• Verizon 8703e and 8830, along with all 8100, 8300, and 8700 BlackBerries require an external

GPS receiver to be connected via Bluetooth.

• Sprint and Alltel 8703e and 8830 have an internal GPS receiver. An external Bluetooth GPS

receiver can also be used.

• There is a Preference setting within TeleNav that allows you to switch between the available GPS

receivers.

The TeleNav application provides:

• GPS navigation that punctually guides you turn-by-turn to any destination address in the U.S. and

Canada. If you miss a turn or get off-track, TeleNav will calculate a new route for you. You can
enter one or more destination addresses by calling an automatic voice recognition system,
entering them on the TeleNav website, keying them directly into the device, or by pulling them
directly from the BlackBerry Address Book. Optionally, you can input a remote origin and receive
Driving Directions from that origin address to the selected destination address.

• Audio and visual traffic alerts while driving or viewing maps, as well as traffic re-routing capabilities

to minimize delays on your trip.

• A Directory feature that allows you to find businesses or points of interest near your current

location or around a waypoint, an entered address, or an airport. You can call the business first to
check availability of an item or get a reservation and then navigate to it. You can also save the
address for use later or check for the cheapest gas prices along the way. Gasoline prices for U.S.
stations in this directory are updated nightly.

• Maps of the area around your current location, a marked waypoint, or an address you enter

manually or have previously entered. You can pan the map (adjust left/right/up/down), and zoom
in or out. You can also mark a point under the cursor as a waypoint.

• A viewer that displays your current location relative to a selected waypoint and to navigate relative

to that selected waypoint.

• The ability to mark the current location as a waypoint that can be labeled.

• A compass-like indicator presenting your direction of travel, location, and speed.

• The ability to personalize the application by selecting the use of U.S. customary or metric distance

units, the language for audible guidance, the volume and backlight level, the timing of displayed
graphics, etc.
