The other night i was at my my in-laws house and i checked my email on my iPod and saw a new cache published that was on the trail right by their house. I didnt have my GPSR with me however my wife had her iPhone. She dosnt have any geocaching apps on the phone. So i opened up the geocache page on her phone. Clicked on the Google maps link which opened the maps app. This put a red flag on the map where the cache was. with the location services on i could also so a blue dot on the map where i was. As i walked the blue dot got closer to the red flag. Once the blue dot was on the red flag i looked and there was the cache! We were FTF. we did this all on the iPhone with no special software!
