Is there a way to cab the VzW radio-only upgrade so that it will unlock, load the radio, and re-lock (without wiping my device)? I am willing to stick with the stock Vzw rom, stay locked, and not go custom. Thanks.
Unfortunately, no. The radio must be updated from the bootloader. It would be too dangerous to allow updating from within the OS.

The biggest problem I have with TP2 is the lag, it's so bad I'm not kidding (2-3 seconds). I have tried Tomtom, Navigon and bing (bing still shows some lag, it has gotten me lost a few time, yes, Bing). My old Titan's GPS with A-GPS was flawless with Tomtom, under 10 second locks 95% of the time and 0 lag. The TP2 is not even close. I guess I try IGO8 next.

Paying for a extra addon program that I have to run right before I use a GPS program (GPSgate) just to get GPS working on a phone that claims GPS support is a problem for me. I have already spent money on tomtom, why should I spend more ??

As for the GPSModDriver I personally think its worse, so you pass a road, then turn it updates 2-3 seconds after you pass the road. A guess (what it's doing) is not a fix for it. It might work for some, but, not for me. I would pay for GPS gate (because it does work during the trial) before using that GPSModDriver again.

I just want a turn by turn GPS software that I just open, 95%+ of the time locks within 30 seconds and is dependable with out having other 3rd party programs running. I don't think it's even possable on a TP2...

I was hoping that MR3 had some update to fix this but, let's not go off topic any more on this.
I understand where you are coming from. I think GPS gate is amazing, and it must use some sort of profile for our phones. GPSModDriver is generic, and I thought it really sucked at first too. Then I realized I had to customize a lot of settings to get it working (like lowering the polling so it wouldn't jump past where I turned like you stated). Once calibrated, I find GPSModDriver to be perfect, but it sucks having to do trial and error with it when something like GPS Gate works out of the box
