Yeah, I don't think tracking takes much juice. You are being frugal. Probably having the display on and redrawing the
map all the time sucks the battery.
GPX Master has the option to show map or not. I leave it off.
Add that to 'normal' use and it becomes a problem.
FYI here is a screenshot of my friends iThingie track (highlighted) and my Garmin (red). The context was our trail
mapping project and whether or not it would be useful to have people submit iphone tracks...a resounding NOT.
For most peoples' use however an iphone is just fine.

The iThingie track is good for seeing where the tree coverage is greatest. :-)
