Except you could build pre-loading of map data into the app. On Symbian phones with Ovi Maps the app will download map data on-the-fly, or you can choose to pre-load it (for example the full maps for Europe or whatnot). I see no reason Google couldn't do something similar.
- Tichy 17y agoWell Google didn't do it. Wish they would.
- nostrademons 17y agoGoogle Navigation already does this, apparently. I was checking out one of the state parks in the Santa Cruz mountains a month or so ago. Naturally, I lost my cell reception once I got into the foothills. But Navigation continued to direct me, turn by turn with map, until I arrived at my destination. I lucked out on GPS though - in some cases, the GPS signal has died just when I need it most. Darn Nexus Ones.
