I say, if you are going to use it often, it's probably worth it, if you just go to work and home again... no.
Most newer phones should support it, but I'm not sure what will and what won't.
I have "gps" on my phone too. Helio uses Garmin's service and Google maps. The Google service is free btw.The real problem with phone based gps is that a premium/digital phone signal is necessary for most of them. What if you ain't got no bars? Oh I forgot,and it's sloooowwwww because it delayed going thru the towers and is usually somewhere behind your actual position.
