Hi Tom,
Thanks for the info, very interesting. I had a quick look at Ariadne but it appears that you have to actually go to a place to add it as a waypoint where as I would like to be able to enter a location using latitude and longitude and then have it give me the straight line distance and direction to get there. Thanks for your reply though. Paul From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tom Frank Sent: 08 July 2013 02:16 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Taking Navigon offroad? I haven't found any way to take Navigon off road. As a matter of fact, I cannot even set up a route in advance since my home is 550 feet from the main road and Navigon will only give me the first instruction. Have you tried Ariadne GPS??It's a fantastic program that I use often. I use it to mark points of interest around the lake where I vacation so I can figure out where i am when kayaking. It will give you straight line distances.

For example does it provide you of the straightline direction and distance of a waypoint even when no roads or paths exist? My second question is also about navigon... I am assuming that you can enter your destination as a latitude and longtitude as opposed to a postal code or street name? For context, I am looking for ways to improve my enjoyment of geocaching. Many thanks for any help you can provide. Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
