Many sales reps did misinform alot of people saying it was GPS capable. but lets be honest if you want quality info about high end electronics would you ask a sales person working on commission or a tech? As far as REV A from day one, it was advertised as REV A CAPABLE, kind of like the PPC6600 was EVDO capable (dont mean to open a can of worms) but there was never an update to make it so. All things considered I'm glad to see in black and white a (loosely) scheduled update to make REV A and GPS avail when the device has been out for less than a year. Trust me if I hear anything that I can actually verify I will gladly pass it along.
I am sorry, but you are wrong. They did in fact advertise it with GPS capabilities, not just E911 GPS. The business website had a whole demo about it for I believe the first 3 days they released it. I, of course, ordered it the first day to find out the website had been "updated" and that feature was no longer supported. Poor business.
