As far as I can tell, Destinator will not give you any ability to use the Droid for GPS in Europe. Droid is CDMA, and the type of GPS it uses requires assistance from it's CDMA network to locate properly. Destinator doesn't change that.

Here's a helpful discussion on DroidForums about Droid, GPS, and Europe.
Thanks for the helpful link!!! Guess I may fire up the Garmin and buy those pricey maps --Or-horrors--use paper maps
