WOW it is so kewl it literaly is navigation system and a woman tells you where to turn and how many feet and miles you have and when your at ur destination and it shows u too. well does sprint have something like that? is there some app for the a900 that does that? thank you!

The A900's gps is still in beta from what I hear and doesn't work with Garmin and or Telnav 3.0.....so just hope they fix this issue along with all the other problems the A900 has.

ha lol ok so i just saw the new garmin 3.0.3 on ********** that one doesnt even work?

Nope, it will give you a location of where you are and that is about it, everything else like gas and driving directions doesn't work.

That's because the A900's GPS doesn't work. It's not that it's still in beta. It's broken, more or less. You won't have working GPS on the A900, and thusly be able to utilize those fancy features, until that supposed 2nd edition of the A900 comes out. And that's IF they fix it, which one would hope they do.

Yes, I'm about to return the phone. I got it last week, I went from Nextel to this atleast Nextels phones are unlockable and they don't lie about what there phones can do.
