Without a 3G signal or wifi signal the GPS is usless. It will show you as a blue dot on a blank page. It has to be able to download the map real time. You can use it to make a route to some location, but it will have no way to display that map once you are out of wifi signal.

You are on the slippery slope of smart phone additction. BTDT

My dad gave me his old original iPhone. I played with it just like you are doing. I kept finding neat things it could do. I drank the kool-aid. I carry an iPhone 4 - 32 gig with unlimited data plan now. My wife has a 16 gig version, and an iPad and we have a Apple TV.
