Default Demand for useing your cell phone as gps device for flying?

While flying you get these informations:
- A display of your situation concerning your route in form of an HSI
display (your heading, your course as an arrow and your deviation).
- A Map view, where you see waypoints (airports, vor) and airspaces
around you.


Interesting idea, but...

I haven't seen a cell phone with a big enough screen to double as a GPS
display in the plane. The ones that *do* have a big enough screen would not
be useable (IMO) as a cell phone.
