Agreed, satnav won't show you where the local take-away is, or which side of the road 44 Acacia Avenue is on. Nor will the AtoZ, but driving around will teach you, plus you'll be able to memorise the road layout far easier by looking at a map than blindly following the satnav..
Mine does, along with supermarkets, sports fields, banks, tourist info, service stations, hotels etc etc. That said I always find it easier to remember, if I'm not quite sure of a destination, to ask the punter because they'll always say things like 'left/right at the post box/white wall/wooden fence and such like' so you learn little pointers to remember the roads by.
