For some odd reason, I can't seem to be able to get my data activated. It seems I need some sort of login and maybe an access point or something which I have never heard of (rogers retention guys didn't really say much, just like, I added your data, try it out tomorrow) and I dunno how to get the GPS to work, since I seem to have to download the Telus navigator for it to work... my SD card is still being mailed so I can't add things like google map or what not yet.

I unlocked my Telus TP2 (actually I have a few on them in our office) and the trick to get the data working was to add in a new modem connection.
-Go to settings and then connections.
-Select the Advanced tab.
-Press the Select Networks box.
-You'll most likley see "Telus" in the first drop down box. Leave that one alone and select "new"
- In the ISP name type Rogers (or whomever your GSM provider is)
-Select the Modem tab and press the "new" button
-In the name of the connection box type "Rogers"
- in the select a modem drop down select Cellular Line (3g)
-Press Next
-In the Number Dialed box enter internet.com
-Press Next
- For the user name enter wapuser1
- For the password enter wap
(I did this from memory so it could be I missed a dialog let me know if you run into problems and I'll try to correct it)
Finish out of the rest of the dialogs and make sure that is the selected modem your using for communications.
That should get your data working and it will no longer try to dial Telus's #777
Haven't played around with the GPS on it so I can't offer any advice there yet...
