From Navigon:
Important note for MobileNavigator iPhone users outside of Europe: We’ve heard about problems entering an address or starting to navigate after updating to version 1.7. If you face any of these issues, please delete the app and install/sync it again. It then works without any problems. We apologize for any inconvenience and are working on a solution.

The update's just hit iTunes and Navigon's USA & CAN app now looks great on the iPad. :D
 
Gah they still didn't fix the bug where if you navigating in heads up mode and click the screen to pan it forces you into north up mode.

Otherwise VERY nice update, nice to finally have some ipad support.
 
Not true. The Wi-Fi does have a GPS receiver. It is only enabled when it detects a WiFi connection. If you use iTether on the iPad and pair it with your iPhone, it will work fine.

The Wi-Fi only iPad does NOT have a GPS chip. It uses triangulation to approximate your position. It does a pretty good job, but it's still not a true GPS.
