    All the decent satnavs download the maps to the phone so will take up between 1-2gb of memory so no data costs unless to get updates, have read though that Tom Tom doesn't work that great on android phones, so could be a costly

    Have a look at navFREE I think it's pretty good and you just download the region/country that you want and the clue is in the name it's free
