I'm going to have a look at Maverick, thanks Gordon.
I noticed this neat little app from the same people - http://www.codesecto...m/here-i-am.php. I often ride in random little country lanes, and have often wondered how easy it would be for someone to find and rescue me if I ever had a mechanical problem. This would allow me to email them a direct location to head towards.
That's another reason that Maverick sounds good - offline maps would be a godsend on those occasions when I'm at a little crossroads with no signage and no idea which way to go. It's always at those times that I have a really weak signal and it takes minutes to download the map... if I'm lucky.
