Hi folks, Thanks for the update to the Seeing Eye gps. I had occasion to use the background mode last week to try it out during a walk and like the fact that it cuts out the amount of information you receive, leaving in the upcoming intersection which is the most valuable info at least for me. Does this mode work while on a phone call?
