I may be misunderstanding the question - if so, sorry. Anyway....

I have a USCC Q9c. GPS is diabled for the handheld. Both WLS and GM will work on the handheld, they just can't access real time GPS information without attaching to a bluetooth GPS receiver. I bought one on EBAY for about $30 and it works great with my Q9c out of the box and with no reg edits.

The Sprint Q9c GPS isn't locked/disabled.

I know. But having unlocked GPS isn't worth having Sprint service. Wore out that t-shirt years ago - no thank you.

Heh, the only thing sprint has going for them is the cheap data plan. But I think we were discussing Sprint Q9c...

My Sprint service is fine out here near Chicago. Did you research your coverage area with Sprint before you got them..? Dont bash a company because you didn't do what should have. Or are you the type that would buy a car without researching or takin it for a test drive???

Ummmm - to whom are you addressing this remark?
