I don't know of an app for the ipod touch that uses a gps receiver.

Hi David, the App on the IPhone you are referring to is it the one they call
Maps? Seems its also available on the IPod Touch, but it uses available wi-fi
networks to determine your location, so if your not near one ... You can
purchase a GPS Receiver (somewhat pricey), and with an accessible app, might be
what I'm looking for. I primarily want it so I can do the navigating while my
wife does the driving.

The Iphone has great accessible gps built-in but it is not as blindness
oriented as mobile geo or some of the other products especially built for the
blind. You can though turn on location services and when you are moving, plot
where you are and also get directions to a place and get a list of things near
by. There is an app called around me which is pretty good and you can download
it from the ap store.

Hi List, I'm just wondering if there are any accessible GPS solutions for any
of the portable Apple devices? I've seen add-on devices for the IPhone, and the
IPod Touch, but nothing to indicate whether or not they're accessible.
