Old Rookie - That is really cool that you can use your iPhone as a GPS. This is super tempting to me because I am a sucker for simplicity.

How certain are you of the accuracy on the iPhone. I've got the 4G and whenever I've used it for GPS location on Google or another application like say, a jogging app, the phone can't really do better than 20-40ft of my position. This is enough accuracy for me to justify not buying a handheld, but I'm curious how well it has done for you?

Any examples or stories would be great.
