Speaking of idiot proof, I am not sure you know what you're talking about here...
Okay, Garmin, Tom Tom, Igo, etc- are using the GPS, NOT cell tower location.
Google Maps uses the cell tower location. Bing is SUPPOSED to use it too, but it does NOT work on the Sprint Touch Pro 2.
So just to clarify- Tom Tom 7 works just fine on my phone. My GPS works.
Google Maps works just fine on my phone. Cell tower triangulation works.
Bing does NOT work on my phone unless I use the GPS.
You started a thread that specifically asks what does not work on the Touch Pro 2. Bing does NOT work on the Touch Pro 2. It does if you use GPS (which I still have to get my location every single time I use it, by the way) but it does NOT work the way it was intended- which it does on the GSM Touch Pro 2 that I have been using for several months now.
