What exactly did you determine was the problem and how did you solve it? I just noticed today that I can't get any mapping program to get a signal. Usually, whenever this happens, it's just GoogleMaps or Live Search that has a hard time, but Sprint Navigation usually comes through, but today, I struck out with all of them.

Any help?

I don't think the PPC6900 has the hardware for GPS capability. You must purchase an external GPS antenna and software to have this option. Good luck!
