Map/GPS of costa rica for iphone?

[vivithemage]

I am driving around Costa Rica for a few days, I cannot find any good alternative GPS for CR.

Can anyone recommend a GPS APP that has Costa Rica, or a map cache that will let me see the map, or GPS on it for CR?

Just get an international sim and put it in and get a prepaid data plan dude, they actually have a reasonable infrastructure and data plans for not too much.

There appear to be several apps that claim to have local map data and GPS functionality for CR. Here's one, search:

Navigation for Costa Rica - iGO My way 2010


It's $50 tho. There's another similar one for $20 but the reviews are awful.

I have a hard time beliving this ... out in the mountains/volcanos and whatnot. Whose their biggest carrier? Can I put in an international carriers mini sim card? Preference down there, with the best signal, for prepaid data/minutes?

I would just Google that.. but seeing as how I just got back from there after this summer, I would tell you that "I.C.E." is the best carrier there. You get decent coverage, I just can't remember if you get 3G coverage.
