Blackberry 8820 sans GPS?

Randall Bennett
Published on August 17, 2007


BlackBerry Cool says it has some inside info that the 8820 is launching without GPS support, and we've heard other rumors that say WiFi support will only work with a purchased data plan. Everyone seems hell bent on pinning this one on some sort of Apple headed conspiracy, to which we reply, "Pshyeah, right." AT&T has been moving more toward the "Verizon-esque" method of crippling phones, and we're sure the nuked GPS isn't some sort of half-baked conspiracy, but rather AT&T trying to push their average revenue per user up.
