I understand the constrained budget, but if you can spring for a hundred bucks or so, you can get a "real" GPS from fleabay or craigslist that fixes all or most of these problems.
Thanks for the app tips!

Just losing our big desktop computer to failed hardware, a back-up device (to our only functioning computer) to be able to retrieve email and other e-processes is mandatory to my O.C.D. That kind of eliminates investing in a purely GPS device.
