With the App updates this evening was version 2.0 of iGeoCacher. This update includes many new features including use of the Map API for improved maps, support for the magnetometer in the iPhone 3GS, and support for the cache notes. I'm anxious to give the new release a try as I've fallen into the routine of using the Geocaching App for its live data, but lack of AT&T service and the recent data center power failure at Internap (Groundspeak's colocation data center) has reminded me of the importance of "off-line" solutions. iGeoCacher allows GPX files to be loaded from any web server so you'll be able to get the caches into the app as long as you have access to the internet from the app. Once they're loaded the caches are there and ready to be found.
