"Trails is the first GPS iPhone app that allows you to record, import and export tracks onto your iPhone." Also, it's not *too* battery intensive, has a really well thought-out UI, and wasn't too expensive. Very nice.

"DHL confirmed to the Telegraph that the artwork was an 'entirely fictional project'." As suspsected. Enthusiastic as I was, I wasn't sure GPS would penetrate that case. Oh well. It's a shame it was presented so realistically; feels a bit cheap.
