This review is from: Dual XGPS200 Portable GPS & Battery Cradle for iPod touch (no car kit) (Electronics)
I prefer the Navigon GPS app for GPS in the car. It is faster (no battery charging time lag when I start), gives me more information than my Garmin, (like speed limits) takes addresses from my address book, has better lane change info, and I can take it with me on bike rides and hikes.
However, getting a call while the gps is giving me verbal directions can be a problem. So, this is the perfect solution and I do not use up my data limit. However, it only works on gps apps that can preload the maps, like Navigon.
So Totally portable for walking, biking and driving. Long battery life. I love it!
Note for recording tracks.
My favorite app for exploring and tracking new bike and hiking trails is MotionX. I can track my trail with the display off. See where I am on Navigon, and download maps for that trail track later using WIFI. I am one happy camper!
