I can give you a condensed version that is in a list format so it will only be a few pages too as this one from BRP is 85 pages!

That would be cool if you guys get it going and maybe do a "How To" on loading it to the Garmin.

We have had nothing but good experiences with the two AT&T stores we have visited and so far very good reception and internet network just about everywhere we have traveled and this includes our trip to CA and back.

There are people selling the iphone "unlocked" which means you can use the iphone on any network. They are getting upwards of $600 and more on ebay just for the phone with no plan.

It won't work on a CDMA like Verizion. That will have to be some major changes to the iphone or to Verizion for this to work. I looked into it pretty hard before getting the iphone. The iphone uses a SIM card and if you have a Jailbroke phone you can swap the SIM cards. Verizion dosen't use SIM cards.

I will say the coverage was great all the way down I40 with only one or two dead spots that I can remember. A few times Ron had no service with Verizion when AT&T was strong. I don't think there are any perfect phone companies but I may have the perfect phone now.

iPhone has changed things for me. I was going to get a lap top but I do most all of what I'd do on one on the iPhone. + every now and then I call people on it.

I hate hearing all these nightmares about Verizon -- Alltel (my carrier) was purchased by them. I am already runnig into problems with their network. It is a shame that companies don't pay more attention to customers -- good customer service is the key.

**SpyderGirl** · 07-22-2009, 09:28 AM

I am VERY interested in this list and/or the file for the Garmin for our cross-country trip coming up in about 7 weeks. Please forward this information to me at spydergirl47@gmail.com.

You guys rock!!!!!!!

On the subject of cell service, I have been fairly happy with my AT&T service. I HATED the customer service through Sprint and I dropped them several years ago and went to Cingular (now AT&T). I have the iPhone and I am very happy with it. For me it's about customer service... something AT&T has and Sprint does not.

I hate Sprint

Thanks Firefly

No problem---- I had planned on doing some how-to instructions - it's pretty easy to load.

I'll also make a smaller version of the BRP PDF and you guys with I-Phones can load it and let me know anything you might want changed.

With Ken's help we can get the GPS one out even sooner!

Thanks Lamont, but there are several PDF reader apps to chose from in the App Store... I wanted to know which one you guys were using.

**Lamonster** · 07-22-2009, 05:24 PM

I have PDF Reader Pro

**SpyderGirl** · 07-22-2009, 05:45 PM

Okay, cool.

SpyderGirl, I am using an app called Aji Annotate. It allows you to search the web even for pdf files. I haven't used it a lot but it is convenient to have.

I saw on the SpyderTalk Forum the connection to get the Spyder Dealers List in PDF file, but my Dell computer won't let me read it. Said I needed the Adobe Acrobat Reader Version 8 or 9. I tried to download that and it won't let me do it, so I can't get the list. Anyone have any other suggestions on how to get it? lawawuu@hotmail.com Thanks. I'd sure love to have that list in case I'm out somewhere and have a problem!

I hate AT&T as well and just went with the new Palm Pre from Sprint and its great!!! Not many apps as of yet but im sure they will be coming soon. Since the SDK is slated to be released to the public next month.

Firefly you are the man. I started this last week and found getting the long. and lat. for each location very time consuming. Would love to have the list for my Garmin. jbosko@elknet.net
As for cell service I think it all depends on where you are and the carriers network in your location. Verizon works great with my blackberry, which work requires and provides. AT&T works great for my family.
