    							GPS technology
    Depending on your wireless service provider, this feature might not be supported.
    About GPS technology
    Depending on your wireless service provider, this feature might not be supported.
    You can use GPS technology on your BlackBerry® device to get your GPS location and to use location-based applications and 
    location-based services. Location-based applications can use your GPS location to provide you with information such as driving  directions.
    If your device does not have an internal GPS receiver or your wireless service provider does not support location-based services 
    and you want to use GPS technology, you can pair your BlackBerry device with a Bluetooth® enabled GPS receiver. For more 
    information, contact your wireless service provider.
    If your device is connected to a CDMA network and you make an emergency call or your device is in Emergency Callback Mode,  an emergency operator might be able to use GPS technology to estimate your location.
    Note: In an emergency, always provide the emergency operator with as much information as possible. Emergency operators 
    might not be able to estimate your location using only GPS technology.
    Turn on GPS technology
    Depending on your BlackBerry® device model and wireless network, this feature might not be supported.

    connects to a central server periodically, which can increase your data service charges. To avoid these charges, you can turn off 
    location aiding, but it might take longer for your device to get your GPS location. For more information, contact your wireless  service provider.
