Android Tablets (was Galaxy Tab)

Does anyone own one?

I have a few questions. Do they have GPS. If so, does it work when you have no connections i.e. no wifi, 3g or any cell type connection.

Is a G.T. available without 3G or 4G (wifi) only. Why have a service plan if you can teather with your phone. If it is available without 3 or 4G does it have GPS.

I am thinking with a nice sturdy case and mounting system this would make a nice GPS for the boat, car ect. There are apps for apple that allow you to pre-download lake maps and boating charts that will then work, "off-line".

I know the iPad has GPS that works off-line but it sounds like the GPS chip is imbedded into the 3G chip. So, only the iPad with 3G has GPS at all.

I do not know for sure any of the information I posted so feel free to correct me. This is just the best I could find on-line.

Thanks
