A few more thoughts then, I am leaving on a trip this evening with an overnight bag containing a notebook computer with my few clothes and toiletries, another small bag with wallet, tickets, passport, phone and other essentials, a white cane of course and I don't wish to sling an additional note taker around my neck. One multipurpose phone and I could carry several additional batteries if necessary and still have less bulk and weight. After all, portability is what one wants for travel and what is GPS if not for travel.

I use it in rare occasions but what about battery life of your phone in case of emigre envy? Jut a thought and battery life in general not to. Mention having multiple apps open to do what sendero gps on a note taker already does well, again just a few thoughts, Aaron STN producer signaltonoise.podbean.com Aaron Linson Once an Eagle Always an Eagle On Jun 21, 2012, at 2:35 PM, "Baracco, Andrew W" <Andrew.Baracco@xxxxxx> wrote: Hopefully, they'll have it working this year.
