Unless someone knows differently - and I'm a newbie myself, so maybe there is one - no Wi-Fi on the XV6900 in (Verizonspeak for the HTC Touch). I think it has GPS, but Verizon disabled it.

The VX6900 doesn't come w/ Wi-Fi out of the box. There are Wi-Fi cards that you can add on, but I don't know if they come in the micro SD variety. My 700WX doesn't have Wi-Fi either, but I pay for unlimited data. If Wi-Fi is really important, you may want to consider another device (if you're still within your 30 day window). The VX6800 (aka HTC Titan or Sprint Mogul) has Wi-Fi.

Less power draw too. Wifi chips take power and size. Our phone is already VERY compact
