   I understand that there are brands of tablets, but we're all talking about   
   the Google Map app, and "a" tablet that doesn't have cellular or GPS but   
   that does have GPS.   
      
   The question remains which of the two methods the Google Maps app is using   
   for the location services.   
      
   1. Is Google using the geolocation of the *connected* WiFi access point?   
   2. Or is Google using the geolocation of the *unconnected* Wi-Fi APs?   
      
   NOTE: When you're on the road, you won't be connected to anything but   
   wide-open access points, so that's why the answer to the question matters.
