What if you don't have a data plan (like an itouch or iPad) and cell service
or wifi isn't available? If you can't send an email or access dropbox,
aren't you up a creek unless you have access to a PC with itunes so you can
transfer the file?
On the droid the GPX can be transferred using the usb cable and just copied
to the micro sd card. Then the GS app will look for the GPX on the SD card
and display the list of caches ready for finding. Just tried it tonight
using a GPX from GSAK and it works fine. I didn't try this on the forbidden
app (c:geo) but I know it will read a GPX from the sd card too.

Lets say your caching buddy emails you a GPX file of caches we are going to
do for the day. (Or Lets say he has the netbook with the gpx file on it for
you in the car). Your challenge is to figure out how to get that GPX file
into your iphone Groundspeak geocaching app.
Can you do it and how did you do it? Show your work.
