the wifi TouchPad uses Google services to substitute for GPS. The 4g/3g touchpad will have true GPS

Well during the time I was using it, I only used the social media apps it had integrated. So yes wifi or 3G compatible. Regarding the GPS I dont recall using it but it did have GPS option.

It is both. it can only operate in 4g when service is available.....when unavailable phone reverts to the next fastest service available....3g. phone is capable of operating in whatever services are within range

In 'System Settings', under 'Wireless & Networks' you can enable the Auto mode for the network, so the phone may find the 3G Network. Nevertheless, the network speed depends on your network provider.

I can't imagine that the answer from Garmin makes any sense. Further a 2009 map on one device should show the same details and POIs that another (760) running 2009 has. Mine came today with 2009 maps and 3.x software. I've now upgraded to 4.2 There were other updates also made to the traffic receiver, GPS (MediaTek) chipset and BT version.

You don't connect to GPS. Your antenna connects to multiple communications satellites and boosts the signal to your MicroCel. Just connect your antenna to your MicroCel and you are good to go.

It utilizes satalites to tell where you are. It's a Global Positioning System (GPS) so it can use satalites to triangulate your position. You do not need a smart phone to use it.

yes the GPS is great but it can be slow if straight talk has cut back your data usage. But it a pretty good gps. it will ask you do you want a standalone or goole access point when you go to cut it on use google it is faster. it make take a while to pin point your location in rural areas but. it will eventually find you.

I believe this is proprietary. From what I've experienced, it ties to the GPS software itself to supply the information. Best I can give you.

Because it has no cellphone radio in it. And trust me, I've had tomtom with that capability --- you do not want it. Using your phone to get the data is much more reliable. The old way left you traffic-less way too often.

It is simply a gps receiver. It needs to be connected to another device to provide mapping, route, speed readouts, etc.

I'm really not sure. The point of any GPS is to find you the route. I know on the 760 you can select routes to avoid, low bridges,dirt roads etc.

For me, it is to serve as a GPS when I am abroad and have my cell only on Wi-fi or bluetooth, not the cellular connection. It then works with my GPS programs as well as mapping programs. It is excellent.

If u have the wi Gi u wud be using it more to get online. The 4G worked great, no issues. My favorite was the durability and the screen resolution. Did not try to use the GPS function, so can't comment. Hope this helped
