Has anyone tried roadnav? I'm intrigued by it's autorouting capability.

http://roadnav.sourceforge.net/
Roadnav is an in-car navigation system capable of running on a variety 
of operating systems, including Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X. Roadnav 
can obtain a car's present location from a GPS unit, plot street maps of 
the area, and provide verbal turn by turn directions to any location in 
the USA. Roadnav uses the free TIGER/Line files from the US Census 
Bureau to build the maps, along with the GNIS state and topical 
gazetteer data from the USGS to identify locations.
