absolutely. geocache navigator. I use it for a backup and it works great all over the country. screen a bit too small to read text, but all you need is there! just $6.99 / mo.

so 6.99 / mo. but is there an extra fee for using the gps or is it included and is it better to do that or would it be better to break down and buy a gps

I use it all the time - it's much better than my Garmin for GPS, and saves me a ton of paper ;)

You'll need some GPS software for it - I use TomTom Navigator. The only time that's not great is when you're caching near to a road as the TomTom will 'snap' to the road. However, worst case, you can view the GPS coords, and navigate from that.
