Didn't work for me initially. When I did get it going, I didn't like it as much as google maps. But, it's completely irrelevant anyhow. They should not be selling me things that are deliberately broken so that you're forced to use something else.
.. For kicks, I just tried it again. Yup, still hate it. It's completely unable to locate any satellites for one unless I pull the battery out and put it back in. ALT, SYM, DEL does not reboot my phone. I wish there was a simpler way to reboot the phone other than remove the battery, but that's the only thing. Also without a word of a lie, it takes 5 to 10 minutes to reboot my phone. It's ridiculous.
If all I wanted out of my phone was a phone, then maybe the BB does just fine. Except that, no, actually, I take it back, it still sucks even as a phone. For example if I want to dial a phone number I start dialing the number. It assumes first I mean someone in my contact list so starts throwing out suggestions. It gets so busy looking up contacts that it drops the numbers I dial and I get an incomplete sequence, have to delete it all and start over.
