Does a modern GPS satnav require a mobile/cell phone to work?

Thinking of buying a Satnav for my car, do modern GPS systems require a mobile phone connection in order to function?



Specifically this one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MAGELLAN-ROADMATE-鈥?/a>

No, they don't require mobile phones to work. GPS's link directly to satellites in space, and use a completely different system compared to cellular signals.Does a modern GPS satnav require a mobile/cell phone to work?
No, they don't, they link up to the satellites, they don't use cell phones in any way, never have.
