That's not a data connection. Although, if the program downloads map tiles similar to what google maps does, then yes it would use data.
Very interesting application though.

I wasnt speaking of a specific action in a GPS APP but if the APP itself as a whole uses data to function. Thats it. If i kill my data connection google maps doesnt like that. I know how GPS works hence no data connection on the Tom Tom in ur car. Bla bla bla...but I do understand what the first guy is saying.
