This is a complex development project to provide open standalone GPS while maintaining the assisted GPS capability with the level of performance and security that our customers expect.

This whole sentence from the article is bull. The capability is implemented, it is tested, and works fine. The beancounters at VZW simply locked it down, but they will never admit it.
VZ Navigator's inability to work with vanilla GPSAPI in WM 6.0 is due to their own greediness. This is what happens when one develops cruddy proprietary interfaces.
