I use gps apps when I'm in an **unexpected** position/place. Otherwise, I can look on a paper map or on Internet a couple hours before. The 512mb sd card received with neo is enough to keep a navit map (downloaded 'very' fast) to cover my daily 'unexpected' routes. I can't say the same for tangogps. This doesn't mean that I don't use it. Last time was 7 months ago, when I've been a little 'adventurous' on an uncharted (by osm) area. I used the tracking feature of tangogps to get back from where I started :) _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
