Not wanting to feel left out of the festival of updates for GPS apps, AT&T has given AT&T Navigator [iTunes link] some new features that are sure to please people who use the app.

Here’s what’s new:

• Full landscape view integration
• Enhanced iPod controls with the ability to search through your songs, artists, etc. from within the app
• Inclusion of AT&T Wi-Fi Hotspots in the POI listings
• Seamless blending of navigation prompts and music for easy listening

The app itself is free, but you have to sign up for a U.S. $9.99/month subscription or get a $69.99 annual subscription. You can see some more details on the upgrade and watch a video of the Navigator in action here.

One nice feature of the app is you can just sign up for a month to take you through holiday travel, and then drop your subscription. Unlike many of the GPS apps for the iPhone, this app requires a cellular signal, because all the maps and info are streamed in over the network.
