a rev a is dropping and the talk is may. you can get a bluetooth receiver off ebay or from radioshack that with get you gps but theres no other way without rev a or the receiver...... googlemaps will not work because it does work off satellites not the phone towers.

I have a blue tooth receiver i bought from ebay holux 1200 .. Fits right on your key chain..I tried it out yesterday with Live search it work flawless... Only down fall is , no sexy lady tellin you were to go lol .. You just have to follow the line lol It does make a little noise here and there, when you have to make a turn (( click)).. However the maps are clean, and very nice man .. I tried the sprint navigation on it .. However, its not external support .. I think i can survive with live search ..

thanks dash //// and thanks louiedoseit i got one today and it works great but dose anyone know when the htc cruise is coming to us for sprint?

Re: gps
 

dont even know if it is its coming from europe and they are gsm. it took a little over a year to get the touch from gsm to cdma so i doubt that we will see the cruise if at all for at least around 2 years.

yea i was looking at that .. Talkin about a 2gb card required, i only have 2gb card now.. Might go ahead an get a 8gb..and tweak with it .. Going on vacation in few weeks to PUERTO RICO.. So i went ahead an mapped everything out on my live search.

I messed around yesterday and got a fm transmitter... It sounds really nice, no more making cd's for me .. I just hook up my touch to transmitter, on the map ..
