Usable: the iPhone 4 and the iPad 2 and 3rd generation iPad with WiFi+Cellular support full navigation except for map stitching. the WiFi-only iPad 2 and later models, and the iPod touch (5th gen) and later models require an iOS-compatible external GPS receiver to show your location in the wilderness and to record tracks.
