Just use a GPS device. Cellphone GPS is useless without a network connection. Cellphones were never intended for GPS mapping. They take forever to a lock and are as accurate as a map and a compass. Get a decent outdoor GPS device from here: <a href="http://www.titangroup.co.ke/mapping-handhelds/">http://www.titangroup.co.ke/mapping-handhelds/</a> and you won&#39;t have have to worry about the battery life, network connections, accuracy etc <br>

<br>They start from around 15k. Same price for a decent Android phone.<br><br>PS. I am a non-interested party in Titan group. They just happen to be the ones I know who have a multitude of GPS devices in stock<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">
