WTF?? maybe it's 'cause I don't have an sms plan. I usually just pay the per message charge 'cause I don't use it that much. |

i just ordered one. im not the type to buy generic, i always try to get at least a mid-range model, but for this price you cant really loose.
with the discount it was $51 shipped! i hope this works, its just a little cheaper then the $500 garmin dash-mount models 
question- can i use this gps with google maps? i find google maps to be amazing on the pearl, its just like the pc version. a little slower of course, but its the same as google earth! |

I figured it out!!! You have to download and install the software from the link that they test message you with. Then use the code and *bam* it works!!! |

Nah, Google maps doesn't have GPS functionality. Maybe in future realeases though? That would be pretty sweet. |

I looked at the Wayfinder Navigator software purchase page and it asks you for the model number of your phone. I didn't see the Pearl there. It lists RIM 8707, 7290, 7130, 8700 or 7100v. Will any of these work for the Pearl?

Please read my post closer. I was talking about purchasing the software, not using the free trial software. |

Thanks. I actually got this message though:
"Your phone is not compatible with Wayfinder's products. Please go to www wayfinder (dot) com for more information."
I was using Opera, I'll try it with the built in browser.
Edit: Works with BB browser. Although this still looks like the trial software (unless it can be activated later on).

www.wayfinder.com
Version 6.5.6 works on the Pearl. The other models are having a prior version pushed until they resolve an issue of rendering on one of their views under 4.1.
There is a major interface difference with Telenav and Wayfinder and the of course the pricing model differs from subscription to one time fee.

Doesn't appear to have it. Wonder how it compares? Not sure it's cheap at that price if it doesn't pull a signal.

I've had it for a couple days now and haven't had any problems getting a signal, even in my house.

so is wayfinder decent for use then? i just seen that its only $14 a year! thats not bad at all, they give you the option for a $100 lifetime membership, but i figure that google maps will have gps built in within the next year or two anyway. also, i only have a 1-year contract on the phone so throwing out another $14 to use gps for 12 months aint bad at all
