this is off topic and a bit geeky, but I was wondering if anyone with
an
iPhone has tried the MotionX-GPS application to track their
flights? It was designed for tracking workouts, like for mountain
biking
and jogging. But I couldn't help but wonder how it would work as a
poor
man's GPS. The basic "LITE" app is free,
full-featured app is only $2.99 (almost free). One user comments
that it works better than his $500 GPS. Is this possible?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

downloaded it and plan to try it out this weekend. Maybe it
won't even work at altitude, but since it gets its signals from GPS
satellites, maybe it will surprise me. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Check out the picture of the iphone mounted on the handlebars of the
mountain
bike, with the MotionX app running. Now picture your instrument panel
with the same mount. Pretty cool, and very cost effective, assuming
you
already have an iPhone. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
