Tellme is awesome! Only when it works. Which seems to be very, very infrequently. It almost always cannot access GPS, which means you have to type in a zip or city and then get results based solely on that. I deleted and reinstalled the program, same results. I would guess it works about once every six or seven tries. Anyone else using it and having similar problems? A follow up to my previous post. Tellme is awesome! Only when it works.

Not surprising, as Verizon has disabled 3rd party software access to the internal GPS of the device. Very annoying- should be a lawsuit about Verizon playing these games.

Why not support a phone like the 8320. GoogleMaps MyLocation shows me where I am without GPS. Actually all GPS apps should have that code too, since too often I've seen friends with an 88xx BlackBerry unable to get GPS while in their cars. I agree with the other comments.
