Yeah. Stick with Google Maps. The GPS on MR1 should work without cell reception as GPS is free and works without cell tower connection on my custom ROM. I really would reccomend unlocking, using a Sprint radio, and flashing to a custom ROM. I know MR1 has wonderful battery life but a Custom ROM always beats a stock offical ROM! Ah, but you're a verizon rep, you should follow the rules and stay offical. Lol
