But alternative methods for entering destination addresses can save you time and effort. For example, you can launch TeleNav directly from an e-mail, your address book, calendar or even a meeting invite, all with just a couple of clicks.

To drive to an address within a calendar appointment, simply launch your calendar app, navigate to the meeting/event/etc. and then hit your BlackBerry Menu key. From the menu options, select Drive To. Next, you may be prompted to choose the address you desire from a list of possible destinations. Choose the correct one and that's it.

Getting directions directly from an e-mail message or address book entry works in much the same way. Simply scroll over the address to which you wish to travel, within your address book or a message, hit your BlackBerry Menu key, and again pick Drive To.

In fact, you can follow these steps to get driving directions within a variety of different applications; if there's an address listed, open your BlackBerry menu and see if there's a Drive To option.
