Also, most carriers require you to have a data plan these days. And,
there are lots of things that can be done by having data on your
device, it would be far too limited without it.

Such is the way of life. Some things we can afford and some we can not.
6 years ago I bought a maestro /Trekker, which was the only GPS
solution for visually impaired people, and I paid fifteen hundred
dollars for it.
Now we have a GPS app that only cost seventy dollars a year. Who knows
what the future may bring.
Hang in there!

Hi.
The following is a combination of a request and an observation. It’s
not intended as a complaint. It’s just to demonstrate that what’s not
too expensive for some can be quite expensive in other cases.
My request to Sendero is to have the GPS information stored on the
iDevice. Earlier this year I canceled my data plan for my iPhone to
save money. I pay $25 for three months of phone service. If I were to
reaquire a data plan, my only reason for doing so would be to use the
Seeing Eye app. For most of you, who already have a data plan, you
would be spending just for the cost of the app, and your data plan can
be used for other purposes. In my case, however, the app would cost me
something like $700, because I’d have to purchase a 2 year contract
from AT&T, plus the cost of a minimum of a year for the app, and if I
decide I don’t want the app after the first year, I’m stuck with an
extra year of data that I probably wouldn’t have gotten in the first place.
That’s my take on things. Again, I’m not complaining, I’m just throwing
another thought on things. I probably won’t be purchasing the app for a
while, but I probably will get it, as well as the 2 gig a month data
plan. I can find other uses for the data besides GPS, so it will be
worth it for me.
Have a good day, and don’t work too hard.
GO REDS!
