Also, the whole point of your thread makes little sense. How many users do *not* have a data plan anyway? It's going to be an insignificant number.

Oh boy. As I said before, A lock can be established because the satellite can locate you. Now the transmission of data will come from an A-GPS server because your phone will have hard time computing for data and it will drain ur battery. Pls. read the previous post before posting. Thanks
