Re: Gps
I think garmin uses the gps standalone. Even if it doesnt, its the shiznit.

Re: Gps
I heard that the Tom Tom and Garmin paid apps actually use the GPS. But why can't anything free use it?? I mean why have it if you have to buy software that can utilize it. I am specifically talking about software like the three I mentioned since if I lose signal the phone is not a useful tool for navigation.

Re: Gps
The reason Sprint will not allow you to download their maps, is so they have a reason to charge you every month for their service (at least that what my buddy that works there says). I use google maps with my Alltel Touch Pro for free. Google maps tends to be a litttle flaky on connecting with the GPS, sometimes it just will not connect, so I got a external Bluetooth GPS (puck), if I need it.
If anyone knows why Google maps sometimes has trouble, please, PLEASE, let me know. Having the external GPS is nice for a back up, but carring it around stinks. Thanks for such a great forum, first time posting. |
