You have to select a "location provider" first, for the blackberry 7520:
Settings-> Location provider selection -> Location API (JSR-179)

To visualize a map you can activate the integrated worldmap layer:
Map -> Layermanager -> World map

or add map data from a Web Map Service:
Map -> Layermanager -> add Layer -> Web Map Service
I did exactly what was said above and than got a few other choices and now I get a WMS error in the lower left hand side of the display.

I know what I would like to see a map in the US but when I select Web Map I get prompted for either JPL world Map, MS terraserver, USGS EROS, or Geographynetwork. I have no idea which to pick and when I pick on than get a whole list of other choices that i have no clue what to pick.

It might be a great app but it is very confusing to setup for sure. I've been in IT for almost 10 years and I can't figure it out lol. A regular end user wouldn't have a clue.
