[QUOTE="OptiplexFx, post: 5765978, member: 208281"] Navigation support is NOT something that needs special satellite support. Navigation capability is in the navigation application or the device itself. Satellites will only relay the position information, routing (or the path to navigate) is calculated by the navigation application using current position and destination. Anyways, a map viewer is pretty much useless when navigating, all you can do is find the current location. And you have to know where you are going and what path to take. In other words it is a digital map with a pointer to your current location :dull: . I suppose it is better than nothing. But a true navigation application is something completely different. I normally use Garmin Mobile XT. But if google come up with offline map support for their new nav app I'll switch to that. [/QUOTE]
