Yes the gps has nothing to do with getting your location for the weather tab. It gets your location from cell towers or it also can get it if you're connected to a WiFi network. I figured the WiFi part out before I figured out that my Alltel PRL was my reason for it not working.

Are you actually a Verizon customer? or an Alltel customer?

Only thing I can think of is maybe the PRL you have is one of the hyrbid PRLs, or you are roaming onto another tower. Does your banner say Verizon Wireless? If it does not, then I'm pretty sure the location thing is not going to work.
