Did you ask Bell if there is a cost to enable the GPS service? I know when I talked to Rogers way back that they normally don't provide the GPS service for free to BIS or BES customers under the TOS policies you have to pay an additional fee for them to enable it on your device.

Forunately for me I have an old account with the original BES service so GPS is enabled by default! :o)
