Well, the first thing that I'd be looking for is performance... The GPS on the phones that I've used have not had great accuracy, or battery life either. The Galaxy Nexus that I have right now draws power faster than a standard 0.5A USB charger can deliver it when the GPS is on, and I've had no luck finding a car charger that will deliver more than that to the Nexus. Second, and actually probably more important, DIY is not always about doing it _cheaper_, it's about doing it _fun_. -- Jeff Ollie _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
