For the uninitiated.. does that mean you can load the map data via wi-fi
without bothering your mobile provider?


Yes, you can tell Google maps to load an large area of map data over
wifi and it'll keep it updated for you every couple of months, obviously
you don't get live traffic info without a SIM.

I presume Waze and Here maps can do similar?
