well you don't actually need a connection to the internet for gps to work but without it you won't see the map.

There are no on-board maps on the iphone like on Tom-Tom

[Dazaroonie]

Yeah you can search for addresses

The map application is free... The edge and 3g thing is when you get your data plan... Everything works.. But you need edge and 3g.. Which is internet but without wifi

I think access to these applications on the iPhone is free. Most mobile phone providers offer "unlimited internet usage" into their packages, but there is a catch, if you exceed a certain amount of downloading, you are restricted under the "Fair Usage Policy" which most of these companies have in small print. Technically, the use of these applications are free,but usea huge amount of bandwidth. I think this only applies to wireless networks such as 3G, so home networks don't apply to this limit.
