Has anyone had experience using an IPAD for GPS in an event like TRR? I have a GPS app called MotionX that can use the .GPX files for trails and waypoints. I just hate to buy another GPS if my Verizon enabled IPAD 3 GPS Equipped will do the job just as good.

Yes, I use my iPad 3 with 3G to do all my trail runs in Colorado. MotionX is a great program. I have created my own GPX files using Google Maps* and downloaded them to my iPad. The accuracy is awesome.

* I use Google Maps to trace a trail (using satellite or hybrid map views), then generate a .gpx file for MotionX

My son is my co-pilot, so I don't need to mount my iPad. It uses a lot of battery, so keep it plugged in and fully charge it each night.

I'll check with Icon on run pricing.

SDHQ. RPG. And ADD are all reserving shop time. So they would be able to do an install.

There goes my tax refund!

That's my plan too!

I do not have a local 4X4 shop, so I would like to take full advantage of the availablilty of shop install services and vendor discounts.

<-----Planning on dropping some coin....so come on vendors...bring your goods!!! :headbang:
