I don't understand why anyone would buy this thing. For $100, you can get a pretty good (albeit generation old) GPS from Garmin (or others)... Why in God's name would you buy an iPhone app that doesn't do as much and costs the same?

My mind boggles.

I got my Garmin 750w, which is WAY more powerful than any app on the iPhone for $149 with two chargers, a case, and a windshield mount for what, $50 more than a stupid iPhone app?

This smacks of YBIC, an old concept on Thoughts Media coined by Jason...

whY?
Because
I
Can

Rules out all practicality and common sense and has you doing things simply because you're able to, not because they make any kind of sense.
