The Droid has googlemaps in 2 modes. One uses GPS plus cell tower. It does suck battery power.

The other appears to have little drain and gives you an area location based on nearest cell tower.

I am not sold on the cell phone - GPS feature based on receiver sensitivity, battery life and small screen size. It may be useful for the occasional user; however, when I need to say routes, I find it cumbersome.

BTW, I do have the upgraded battery for my Droid which does help with battery life.
