That sounds cool, I think I need a memory refresher on what blindsquare does as opposed to your typical gps software, sense I unfortunately can't afford to buy both, and think $30 is a little steep. Everything you just mentioned sounds great though, considering the fact that I've tried various gps apps, and unfortunately haven't been completly satisfied with any of them, and thankfully was given an Itunes giftcard for my birthday, so can afford to buy it now.
