Sounds like using a phone for turn by turn navigation is adequate in Nicaragua. I will pursue that route.

Not really enough for maps. The new phone has good reviews.
Thanks to /u/dhcanada and /u/el_nica !!
Looking forward to the trip!
Check out this guide, the schedules for buses were pretty spot on.
Blood of Brother recaps the history of Nicaragua, focusing on the Revolution. It's a good read.
Read Eric Volz's book Gringo Nightmare:
