    I have an 8520. The 'check in' option on my FB app didn't allow me to do it, due to lack of GPS. But after receiving a file off somebody who had a Bold (was sent via bluetooth) it works. Think it uses there like map data or something. So try that

    Is your 8520 running BlackBerry OS 5? Check in Options, About. Places is disabled in earlier versions of the OS.

    Wor lass had the 8520 for a few weeks and no places. Downloaded bb maps and then got the option, not really sure of what it did but she could then check in....
