Few questions:
I'm guessing I better have a car charger for the phone, as this will drain the battery?
What happens if I get phone calls or text messages while using it?

Yeah, just keep it hooked up to the charger while you're driving. If you get calls, it switches over to the call, and then automatically switches back to VZ Navigator when the call is over. If it gives you peace of mind you can go ahead and print out the Mapquest/Google stuff, but like I said, it hasn't steered me wrong yet. I've been paper-free for the past year. I think the folks knocking it just haven't taken the 20 minutes or so to play with it, and to learn the different functionalities. Just my $0.02.
P.S. Make sure you have the GPS Location function turned "on" or VZ Navigator won't run. And make sure you've downloaded the latest version to get the traffic and congestion updates. Also, it's $9.99 per month to subscribe. Works out better than buying a new $600 Garmin every 3 years.
