Hey guys, sorry if its been covered and I missed it - do we know how cell and internet coverage is at the park ? 3G or 4G ?

I will be there on the June 8th with a Verizon & AT&T devices. I will let you all know what signal is available. If you plan on using MotionX or other offroad GPS software, I would download the maps before you arrive. What the hell - the MotionX ones are free.

 

[Wilson]

on the ipad do you need internet serves for the motionx to work?

Depends on the iPad. Which one do you have?

 

[Fred]

Really...I have the 3rd and 1st gen...so i could use this with no internet?

I was thinking of adding a WiFI Router in the Truck as a hotspot.

My bags are packed ! Who needs a headlight upgrade for the Rally ??? On site installs are free !

I live 45 min from rausch creek, I'd be interested in getting a set installed at the run. Not sure about joining in the run tho.

You can use MotionX and download the map tiles ahead of time. But that doesn't help you if you don't have a GPS receiver. The WIFI iPad does not have a GPS. The iPad mini has a cellular assisted receiver. Not sure how it's fundamentally different other than it needs a cell signal. There is a GPS receiver from Bad Elph I think that is bluetooth and can be used with the wifi only iThingys.

 

[Fred]

Saw the ELPH 1000 on Amazon for about $100. This might just be what I need for my iPads to use on the run...

Really cool thanks

It's the bigger Ipad I bought at christmas last year.

16GB dock connector to USB Cable, and USB Power Adapter. Supports Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g/n) and Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR. Requirements: Apple ID (required for some features)* and Internet access.**

that's what the box says.
