Yeah -- my Motorola Q9M is reported to have the WiFi and GPS navigating code in it, but Verizon made them disable them so they can sell their "data plan" at a minimum of $10 a month, and "VZNavigator" at $9.95 a month. Needless to say, I took the first year's payments and bought a Garmin. Much nicer unit, and it's free after the first year :-).
