I just hope it is soon. I have a cross country trip planned end of Sept and was actually going to pick up a BT GPS for my mogul. Maybe not...

I agree.. soon would be soooooooo nice. I am seriously considering going back to my Sanyo M1 for GPS and Sprint TV and putting the Mogul on the $25 developer data package.

Sprint and Telenav need to get crackin.

So the Mogul has a dedicated GPS inside? Someone else said it couldn't be dedicated because there wasn't an antennae. Is this a new GPS chip where it doesn't need a physical antennae?

It does as do many phones (the BlackBerry 8800 has no external antenna but full GPS support).

What they meant was that there is no antenna hooked up for GPS support as there is a place for one in the unit. Because of that reason many feel that they won't fully support GPS, only aGPS. Also remember I'm only repeating what I've read here and XDA, I haven't cracked my Mogul open to see.
