Update: Mogul ROM Update to be Released Oct 22nd?

It is now being rumored from DaSuper, a Sprint employee, over at The Buzz that Sprint will be releasing it’s first major ROM upgrade for the Mogul this month that will hopefully address the serious BT issues that have plagued the Mogul since it’s release. There is a lot of hope this will be fixed (if the ROM is truly released) as the Alltel homegrown port of their ROM version of the their PPC-6800 seems to fix all the BT issues all of us Mogul users face every day.

Rant: gpsOne is Not GPS

Pardon my rant: I joined in the crowd talking about the FCC approval of the ho-hum HTC Iris because it’s out there in the blogosphere and we here at WMExperts are super hip with the blogosphere, natch. I’m seeing it reported that the Iris has GPS.

Google Maps - Playing GPS Catchup on Other Devices

 Gmm Images Phone En A story is making the rounds that Google Maps Mobile now supports GPS. Perhaps I'm missing something, but I've been using GPS in conjunction with Google Maps Mobile on my Windows Mobile devices for awhile now. Since February. Heck, I even posted a Valentine's Day Video detailing how to set up Google Maps with a Bluetooth GPS puck. So congrats to you, Blackberry 8800, for getting GPS support in Google Maps Mobile. It's almost like your OS offers quality 3rd party app support and development. Almost. > *Google's mobile maps software will now use the GPS capability of many newer handsets (with GPS carrier support) to pinpoint your location and make directions and navigation just that much nicer.*
