but when I get back to the states... that'll be the majority of my riding... getting lost... finding my way back... and getting lost again...

I agree,it's great getting lost but eventually you might want to get home again! Btw my experience with phone based gps isn't very good. You have to have to be in your carriers "premium service" area or it doesn't work and the lag time is terrible! Like Ebbs, if you carry a map anyway and are using your phone as a suppliment,you should be fine. Note;some of the gps companies let you download maps from their websites for free.
