Any Interesting Uses for the N7 GPS ??
« on: September 10, 2012, 10:39:04 AM »
Aside from the usual "Car Map GPS" (Garmin does a better job) and local weather/shopping/services, anyone found any new and novel applications for the N7 built-in GPS ?

I have used it as a chart plotter with MX Mariner .  I teach Coast Guard Licensing and have delivered vessels over 3000 miles this summer
