    Is it just meet or does Google maps (3.0.2) not work on Bell (Canada) I have done about 4 battery pulls and even completely uninstalled the program and reinstalled and when I go outside it's still using cell towers.

    PS BBMaps was working and had 10 sat's when I tested Google Maps

    Where did you find the icon? I think bell forgot about me apparently there is now a MMS service book or something

    I saw it a few days ago on my desktop in landscape mode. I dont think the MMS is true though. Did you try using poynt? When i installed that and pointed it to google maps it found me almost instantly.

    Google maps works, but GPS doesn`t work for it for me under Bell.

    I got the Bell Nav and the NHL Unlimited pushed to my phone already.

    i'll call bell tomorrow and make sure. Maybe these assholes are trying to push the sale of Bell GPS Nav before they actually release it.

    Weird though. It works for me but BB maps doesnt.

    BB maps works fine, so does Poynt and everything else, only google doesn't. I did the GPS fix earlier, has no effect on google.

    Any update on this? I'm interested in hearing what Bell had to say.

    It was reported that the GPS in Google Maps for BB will only work for the Storm on Verizon at this time.

    I'm not sure why though... it's the same hardware, i don't know why it works for Verizon but not for Bell or Telus.

    This really blows!
    Stupid Google!
