Garmin maps are without a doubt one of the nicest uses of OSM data but 
they aren't the pioneers of OSM routing. Have a look at 
OpenRouteService.org or Yournavigation.org as well as Navit and Gosmore 
among others. Those are available for over a year using OSM data for 
routing and are quite functional.

I've received numerous mails from users of yournavigation.org stating 
that they use it extensively for testing and debugging their roadnetworks.
