Webraska Navigation 6, a GPS navigation solution for mobile devices, is now available in selected markets on RIM BlackBerry mobile devices. Among the first countries to see the benefit is Italy, where Vodafone is offering Webraska software as part of its Prodigio packaged offer for business users.

The Webraska solution provides route guidance with voice instructions and detailed vector maps of across nearly 30 European countries, based on Navteq map data. Also included are real-time traffic alerts, giving information about congestion, road works, accidents and closed roads; speed camera alerts including location; and local search for nearby points of interest.
