Um... The Mogul is a PDA. Its purpose is mainly for you to make calls on and have a tool to organize your life on. Send email, surf the web...blah blah blah. Using the example of TomTom is a bad one because a TomTom's sole purpose is navigation. The Mogul isn't. All of its other features work...maybe not to your liking, but they work.
But if you want to use the TomTom example, how about this? If you got a TomTom and found out that the GPS didn't work on it and that the manufacturers were going to release a rom "someday" to make it active, then why would you keep it if the sole purpose of you buying it was the GPS? All of us, by keeping the Mogul past the 30 days accepted the fact that we were willing to wait for this update. I don't know about you, but I tried the GPS stuff right when I got home and was well aware that it wasn't up and working yet. But I liked the other features on my phone that I was willing to wait. If not having GPS is bugging you so much, then why didn't you return it when you figured out it didn't have it?
I get everyone being mad about spending so much money on a phone and everything not going to plan, but bitching on here is not going to solve anything. I think folks did a good job informing Sprint and HTC of all the crap we've gone through with the phone that they are basically pushing an update...hopefully a good one...for the phone. And it's not like the folks are sitting on their asses trying to get around to GPS whenever they feel like it. Sprint makes money off the whole GPS deal. They can charge you for a higher internet plan if your phone is enabled with it. If it makes the company money then why not try and get it out as soon as possible.
But hey, I'm sure folks will curse me to the high heavens for my post. But I am completely with the people who say that everyone was in love with this phone before 2.16 came out. After that, people just kind of killed the forum with complaints. I'm surprised I haven't heard any, "I'm switching to Verizon"
