Agreed, have not seen anything yet that leads me to believe it will come with GPS (non-911) enabled. I am holding out hope for the initial rumors of GPS and thinner profile. Closer to launch I am not seeing much about the thinner profile nor the GPS enabled.

It does have an updated "8GB" enabled listing on the tech sheet where the other Vogues had "4GB" despite the fact we knew they could run 8.

Adama Brown of Bright Hand is reporting the April Launch of the Touch: Verizon's will be GPS enabled and includes support for the carrier's VZ Navigator premium mapping service. It's unclear whether the GPS will be locked to this application, or if it will be usable with other mapping programs and services

"This announcement makes Verizon the third US carrier to offer a version of the Touch, and the first to sell the device with its internal GPS receiver enabled. Sprint and Alltel both also offer the Touch in a grey version"
