To clear it up - if you WANT the 6800 and WANT GPS navigation without using an external GPS unit, you have to use Telenav. Sprint will be supporting Telenav for a $10 monthly fee - no other apps work without using an external GPS unit. You have to pay Sprint or Verizon a monthly fee to use the GPS on board - they made sure it was limited so they could get a monthly fee from you otherwise they could have had a full GPS on board.

If you want a Phone that works with TomTom, iguidance, google, live search without using an external GPS unit (seperate from the phone) you need to get an X800, or another phone than those offered by Sprint or Verizon.

Pretty sure that explanation doesn't leave any wiggle room - ONLY TELENAV will take advantage of the limited A-GPS chip in the 6800 - there are NO OTHER APPLICATIONS besides Telenav that work without buying a seperate GPS unit for the 6800.

NO ONE has found away around this PERIOD.
