Shooter,
I use NavFree alot. It is, as the name suggests, free and is very useful in terms of looking up an address in google (whilst in Navfree) and then using that founds address as the go-to point for your navigation.
If you have an ipad it works just as well!
Gafra,
Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll give it a whirl!

I have an iPhone 4. We also recently got an iPad2, with wi-fi only. Is there a way I can make my phone a hot spot and connect the iPad to it? Will it be super expensive? Help me, hive mind!
There’s a few, but they (AFAIK) all require jailbreaking. Here’s one.
Note that outside the US you may be able to do this without jailbreaking, depending upon the carrier.
Badger is correct. You will be asked to pay $20 to $30 dollars a month incremental for the privilidge. Note as well if you are grandfathered into an unlimited data plan you will be forced to switch to 2 Gig a month (or whatever you want)
I have an iPhone 4 running MyWi (one time $20 fee) and it’s the access point for my WiFi iPad. I use it all the time and have never gotten the dreaded ‘knock it off’ text from AT&T.
Oh, they finally did it? Took their time about it.
There’s basic game theory in play here. Posited: You want tethering.
Case 1: Spend $20 once to buy MyWi
You tether your device. It either continues to work indefinitely (my personal experience) and you pay no extra cash per month or they detect it for some reason and force you to pay $20 a month starting the next month. Total cost after one year ranges between $20 and $240.
Case 2: Just sign up for the personal hotspot function from AT&T to start with
You tether your device and begin paying $20 a month extra continually and the total cost after one year is definitely $240.
Seems like a nobrainer to me, and as I mentioned, I’ve been doing this for 8 months.
Until you mentioned it on the internet, and Steve Jobs sends an army of Geniuses after you. :eek:
Bring it on, hipsters! 
Fun $0.99 (right now) game: Bubble Bust! http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bubble-bust!/id407998895?mt=8
Starts easy, nice even ramp-up of skill required. Excellent casual time vortex.
Downloaded/Installed iOS 5 on my 3GS yesterday. Surprisingly it runs pretty smoothly. I thought the new OS would slooowww it down, but it’s not any “slower” than it was with iOS 4. I love notification center and iMessage. One of the changes I never saw anything about is there is a new alarm notification.
Some free Trek ringtones are here.
(Android et al. can use them with a bit of work. Change the extension to m4a and most audio editors should be able to change them to MP3s easily.)
I got my Iphone in January and have slowly been adding a small collection of apps (games that keep the kids entertained, fitness, etc) but would love to hear what my fellow GWC folk consider “Must have” apps.
Well, of course Cylon Detector!

gUnit
