Re: Official 800w GPS discussion
I've never had to reset my phone to use the GPS features at all and I've used them quite often. And I don't see how the GPS for the Mogul is any more compatible with say iGuidance than the GPS for the 800w would be...

Re: Official 800w GPS discussion
Alright alright... I'll keep it on the 800w.
Me actually HAVING the phone and using the GPS instead of having some other phone, the fact is that I've never had to soft/hard reset my phone after using the GPS, an issue that I've heard the Touch Pro and some Moguls, both by HTC, have experienced. Sprint Navigation works flawlessly and so does iGuidance and Google Maps, and the GPS lock is pretty fast, even indoors. The ONLY gripe I have with it, and it's not even about the GPS itself because that works great, it's about the location search today plug-in. Results aren't sorted by distance which seems a bit strange. Other than that I'm very pleased to have a portable GPS right in my pocket |

So these are not "claims." The GPS problem is acknowledged with the 800W. There are multiple complaint threads on the Palm's own support fourms. The GPS is blocked from working if you are not in range of a Sprint land tower. It maybe trivial to some users. But people who purchased it for the standalone GPS, for example people who live in rural areas or travel outside the country, are screwed at this point. I hope this clarifies matters. This is why the Mogul GPS works better, it is actually aGPS and true standalone GPS. |
