I just got back from my tMobile corporate store without my 8900 i really wanted. The sales guy is telling me that the only thing that can access the gps is telenav at $10 a month. is he right i don't think he is. google and bb maps should be able to use it. tMobile has always seemed to not neuter phone hardware.
Thank you.
That is what I thought too he is just trying to sell me more than I need. I don't have to have audio turn by turn directions, I just want to know exactly were I am some times to find a different way around traffic.
wi-fi and free gps are the main things I want in this phone.
I've been using telnav for over a year and it workds great. Is google maps similar, and what is the cost compared to telnav ($10.00 a month). How do you down load google maps
Thanks

There are a variety of apps you can use the GPS on. The guy probably wanted extra commission. Some reps are like that, but don't take that rotten apple and allow it to spoil the bunch of fantastic other apples in the TMO tree.
