In my opinion there is plenty of iinformation available about this app. More than enough for someone to decide if it is right for him without actually trying it.

People will always complain no matter what you do.
  Also, Blind Square is not a GPS app in the sense most people mean.
It makes no bones about that.

I support Sendero in what they do for us who need GPS apps. OK there are quite a lot of GPS apps for the I phone but they will not come close to what I want and I don't care how much I pay for this.

I am giving a friend some funds to buy the App in the US as he can't afford it but we were both on the GEO Beta list and we both did endless podcasts with GEO and Mobile speak. As soon as this App comes out in the UK, i'll be buying it and getting rid of Blind square which is not in my opinion accessible in the way that an GPS App should be. The only thing that comes close is the Trekker Breeze.

So Mike, I'm your number 1 fan even though I do not have the App!
