There are non-iOS and non-Android OS out there still.
Delta service requires those to make their website work or they give you a 3hr estimated wait time to speak to a live agent. Disfunction.
It's too bad Blackberry disappeared. I'm still looking for a quality linux smartphone from a major provider.
Map guidance is my achilles heel.
Google now owns 99% of the non-Apple guidance market cough.
RE sites, MapQuest, even Microsoft Bing defers to them.
Add in search, email, OS, ReCaptcha and that becomes most of the internet....
Full maps should be downloadable. GPS is free.

If the service is free, you are the product. And GPS maps are not even remotely free. If you want to update your GPS device, the maps are sold as a service. Yea, you can receive the GPS signal and learn your geolocation on Earth, but unless you have a map to know what is where all you have is a dot on a blank screen.
