One of my closest friends was the founder / CEO of Trapster - Pete Tenereillo - who was crushing Waze for years in total MAU.

Trapster was originally positioned @ speed trap avoidance but as they grew to tens-of-millions of users their feature set more closely mirrored Waze (or vice versa?).

Trapster was eventually scooped up and killed by Nokia (1), is there any true competitor to Waze @ this point?
