    Not sure. Don't use google maps that often. I believe they use cell towers. I use BB maps. Its dead on.

    try the native BB maps...faster load and way more accurate than Google

    Thanks buddy! I went to the bbhybrids site and someone had a prolem.. Someone else asked them if they had bbsaked first so I didn't know if this was a MUST.. Can I do the 5 battery pulls consecutively? Thanks!
