    Isn't using non-voice gps *worse* than using a cell phone? You don't know where you are, where you're going, and you're looking at a tablet instead of the road.

    well I use my tablet to navigate all the time. I would not try to put in a destination while in moving traffic, but I have done it while sitting in traffic (as in stopped).

    I think with enough lead time. and large enough tiles, you're good.
    Far better than paper maps I think.
