Does the globe have to be connected to the internet to work?

It is my understanding that you need to connect to the internet to download and update the globe but not to operate it on a daily basis. I never got that far, as it wasn't compatible with my Mac......

NO it's a stand alone product --updating software does require connecting, but my daughter has not yet felt the need to do that Happy Holiday

Yes, however magic jack also requires internet and electricity to work. For most scenarios, magic jack should be fine.

You don't need any data plan or internet connection to use its GPS function. I have one and I used it without any extra service or plan and as a side note the graphics are very good and it works flawlessly.

no, an internet connection is really only needed to sync and download games or other books from the LeapFrog App Center.

It is connected to the internet via wifi. I thought when I tap on 'My position' it should download the required map data automatically using the internet. But it stays still and always shows Germany. I'm tired of trying. I decided to return it.

Internet is necessary. Some apps come with it. Mine crashed about 2 weeks after I got it. I'm returning it and hopefully the next one will be fine. Happy New Year!

No. This frame requires that you connect to a wifi point and then use the internet connection to synch with an account before doing anything else.

Yes, will work without an internet connection. Either use the APE to create a wireless network, or join the APE to your existing wireless network

Best to ask your Internet provider as they will need to configure your account and the device to become Global

You do not need a service. It works with the satellites. Turn it on and give it a few minutes to find the satellites and you will see your coordinates.

No, it needs a wired ethernet connection to the internet (through your router).
