The internet data plan when navigating using google maps is actually used to download the map data along the way.

Since the GPS software (that you are going to buy) will use the map data locally (which is downloaded to your Android device beforehand), there will be no downloading of the map data, thus internet data plan is not necessary.

Unless if you have AGPS (assisted GPS) enabled on your device, then when acquiring satellite, you might incur some data charges. To avoid this, just disable AGPS.

Hope this helps.
