the software is free. the regions are downloaded. maps are installed. somehow i don't see the cdma phone getting used for actual airwaves. unless he's going to use the actual air waves. but since america is the only cdma technology. i don't think that's going to happen.
tere are programs that can be download onto the phone that aren't internet required. i have navigon, copilot, and osmand. cuz gps don't work in teh boonies when there's no signal.
Get a Garmin. It will be cheaper and easier than using cdma phone overseas.
