Rumor has it that May 15th all VZW phones will be able to have VZ Nav on them as well.

NOT ALL VZW phones will not have VZNAV. Not all of the phones have Get It Now. PDAs dont and will only the Pearl has the ability for VZNAV. So when you stop reading stupid sites and obtain real knowlodge, come back and talk. Til' then, SHUT UP!

@9 It's funny that you sit there and tell people to get real knowledge when you go ahead and make a statement saying the Pearl is the only PDA that gets VZ Navigator. The Blackberry 8830 does, and several others will shortly (i.e. XV6800 and XV6900) - so stop being a hypocrite.

Ok so just a SIDE note.... the hack for the Touch is an Alltel ROM. If you don't know what this means: You are using Alltel's software; not their towers. Once downloaded, instead of "Sprint Vision" or "VZW" (next week) it says "Welcome to Alltel Wireless" or something. Also it downloads some Alltel programs. As for the GPS, you've got to do some major tweeking.

Last thing, VZ Nav's gonna be on the new Moto Q9c.

And the Curve will have it too but that goes without saying.

there is no tweaking needed to get gps. the first time you use it could take 10-15 minutes to get the initial lock, but thats it

Yeah, this is just the area to have disputes about gay being bad or not. Plus you spelled the wrong form of "YOU'RE". The Pearl of course will not be the only PDA with VZNAV, verizon is not that stupid. Off of that subject now... Is there a way to parse the Rev A and GPS portions of this flash out of the ROM so that we don't have to see the "Welcome to Alltel" screen and download their proprietary software. I work for vzw and I want this Rev A but don't want to get busted by having a phone that displays Alltel

VZ Nave can be ran through PDA's useing a similar source like APP ZONE, like the program used for the original Moto Q ( you DO know that the Moto Q has VCAST right, you know that cel phone program...yeah) So I wouldnt insult people on information YOU dont know. I happen to know for a fact verizon IS going to release VZ Nav eventually on all handsets, BBerry was the first of the bunchto carry the application becasue the user interface was freindly and the programs were secure so people couldnt HACK like they are doing to this phone, Once verizon gets a grasp on how to make able VZ Nav programs using Windows Mobile OS w/out having people screw with it, you will see a release. So RUMOR HAS IT know your stuff before you pull out your blank card, revealing the lack of intellegence you have to even post a smart comment on a random website. and RUMOR HAS IT the Q series is the next to have VZ NAV.
