Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

Yes, I got mine through telus. Lte was not an option there. I do like just having it. It's getting better reception than our phones. The internal antenna is larger which gives us access in more places than our phones.

Heres a quick picture of how I have mine setup for travel. Apple music controls, weather, time and most used apps right on the main screen. Can't wait for next week when all my mounting gear arrives.

After I saw the price on that thing I am considering getting one... That's not a bad deal at all.

Are you talking about the samsung I own? Just be aware that it does not have a compass sensor in it. If that's important to you.
I have a Samsung galaxy Tab A, my wife bought it for me a while back 32g memory. I believe it runs around $300. It would be an Ideal tablet to load a navigation app. Like Back Country Navigator, which I have used on the Samsung nook tablet from Barnes and noble, (8g memory) the problem with the nook was the lack of usable memory. I have not loaded a app on this yet because I find I don't like messing with that kind of navigation. And where we go exploring the trails are pretty clearly marked. If we lose our way, we usually have paper maps in case we have to stop and figure it out.
It is a very nice tablet, I really enjoy using it to surf the net and watch videos.

I've been using a Nexus7 that has embedded GPS, it's old tech but works great with Gaia. Hers a link for old tricks.

Transform your Nexus 7 into a car tech powerhouse
With the aid of a few apps (and a bit of self-restraint), the Nexus 7 can become the navigation and media center of your car's dashboard.
