Re: GPS Program not Requiring Internet
I'm using alltel prepaid with a diamond and have been looking for some kind of gps mapping that would not use data/etc (data is .10/minute) and that was free, I have tested several and the best I found was navicomputer, while it does not do directions, etc (I haven't played fully with it), I am able to pull up where I am and figure out what I need to do if I am lost (I moved to another state recently and out in the country, not many landmarks to remember for turns, etc)
I was able to download the maps for pretty close to the entire state, level 7 through 13 gives me enough detail, took about an hour to download and is about 35 meg
again, I haven't played much with it, but what would be nice is where you could select 2 points on the map and it would draw a line, while an actual route might use data, if there was at least a line from point a to point b you could watch the map for turns, etc, more manual for gps mapping but better then nothing
just my 2 cents
