GPS -- Time To Get Excited Yet?
So HTC has already posted the user manual to the Touch, and in my spare time I skimmed it. The only thing that was very interesting was on pg. 167 under connections where it lists that there is an Internal GPS Antenna.
I went back to check, and the Mogul does not list this under hardware? So, might we finally be sporting a PPC with GPS from Sprint?

Sprint advertised the Mogul as being "GPS Enabled" and we have no GPS. I wouldn't hold your breath for GPS on the Touch.

Thank for posting that here... however, there's already a thread for Touchpal on the software forum

It also has a note in the description of the LED's on page 4 that seems to say that GPS will be built in:
Right LED: Shows a flashing blue light when the Bluetooth system is powered up and ready to transmit Bluetooth radio signal, or an amber light for GPS status. Now to get my hands on it. I don't think the 4th will come soon enough.

on page 26 it talks aboutthe external gps. this says nothing about internal gps. the led is just there if the external gps is connected to the ppc.
on page 47 it talks about the Location Setting. this is where it talks about the device’s built-in GPS chip. this is just your normal 911 crap. page 173 agian talks about the internal gps chip, but if affraid it is only the 911 crap agian. boy would i love to be wrong. if it has gps i will be getting it for sure. cody

the touch or vogue as it was codenamed initially had a NMEA internal GPS chip and accompanying antenna, and I remember seeing this specifically on pdadb.net a while back. After Sprint "re-branded" the phone, we find that this internal chip no longer exists we also find that wi-fi is no longer available.
Thank you Sprint for crippling our product.
