"Checking the GPS Status

To locate details of the last time the BlackBerry smartphone achieved a signal, complete the following steps:

1. From the BlackBerry smartphone Home screen, click Options > Advanced Options > GPS.
2. The last time the BlackBerry smartphone was in GPS coverage will be indicated under Fix time.

Refreshing GPS

If the GPS is unable to achieve a signal, the GPS can be refreshed. This action will force the GPS to attempt to obtain a new fix.

To refresh the GPS, complete the following steps:

1. From the BlackBerry smartphone Home screen, select Options > Advanced Options > GPS.
2. Press the Menu button, and then click Refresh GPS. The screen will display Searching for Satellites and, after a short period, the screen should be updated with the new fix information.
"

I dont see any of those options under Options, Advanced Options, GPS when i push the menu button.

Maybe Alltel cripples it too?

EDIT: I dont see "Fix Time" anywhere in the GPS options at all.
