[QUOTE="TBItoy, post: 434625, member: 1384"] [b]Re:[/b] Don't have to have data signal. I can pre-download all maps that I want to use, and actually run the phone in "airplane" mode where it turns off the data/cell service, runs GPS only. I have the same app on my Ipad, which doesn't even have data service at all. I've only took the ipad to the woods once, didn't really need the large screen, so I just use my phone. There is a lot of mountain property close around where I live that is covered in old logging roads and such. It's very helpful to have a GPS with detailed topo maps to find your way around.. Trimble sells full map packages for download or on an SD card... but, you can download and make your own map packages (pick what types of maps and what zoom levels you want) for free from the online maps. Of course this requires a bit of planning and pre-downloading. Hell, you can do the same thing with Google maps. I did that the last 2 times I wend to Mexico (since I don't have international service) I download the map of the area I'll be in and carry on. :dblthumb: [/QUOTE]
