Gps/cell tower/wifi navigation

This program is awesome.

It is a navigation progam the uses cell towers, wifi AP's, or GPS.
Maps load faster than google maps in my opinion.

BUT the coolest thing is that they will pay you to collect data for them. As your driving around it searches for AP's and cell towers and stores that info along with the GPS locations. Then you send that info to their servers and they give you points. 2 per wifi AP and 10 per cell tower. When you get 10,000 points they give you $20. I know 10,000 sounds like a lot, but I've used this a few hours while driving around town to the store and stuff like that and I already have over 2000 points.

Check it out, it's free

First goto:

register

and sign up for an account, then you can either download the free version from their site, or I've included a link to the .cab file here:

do you have to have gps on your phone to use this?

not a bad idea, take a long trip and accumulate 20k points and it almost pays for some of your gas. not too shabby.

but once you use a wifi access point or cell tower you cant use it again.

ill think about it....anyone else tried it yet? someone who isnt just trying to get referrals please.

You can always go to the site and check it out Navizon - Virtual GPS for mobile devices and laptop computers

I think that in order to get points you have to gave GPS so it can tell where the AP's you are finding are.

Yes I am trying to get referals, but it really is a cool program. If you don't like the idea of referrals thats fine, just goto Navizon - Virtual GPS for mobile devices and laptop computers and sign up that way, then I get no credit and you still get to check out the program.

If you use google maps at all I suggest checking this out, seems to load maps faster, for me anyway.
