Here is something that may put you off buying one from O2

http://customerforum.o2.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=2011

Seems as though O2 have removed google maps and the standard app you download from google does not recognise the internal GPS.

Hrm, it is not possible to download some maps + navigation software? Google Maps is nice but if it needs to constantly download the maps it is pretty useless even with `unlimited` internet. I'd like to get something such as TomTom on the phone and do without any data transfers, just the phone + maps should be enough isn't it?

Thats true, i noticed it doesnt have google maps, just geo tagging and tracker and thats about it.

I figured it was just the W760 and other GPS-heavy phones that would come with the software for it, seems not.

That's extremely disappointing.

Further reason to wait for CPW to get stock then, methinks..

For the O2 phones they've removed google maps, though you can add it (however it then doesn't allow goemapping). Since CPW seem to source phones from a non-network specific supplier, then getting the phones there seems to be a good option - however although CPw-online list it I went into a store today and they didn't have the phone and could only tell me its expected "soon".

I haven't seen any flash programs for the c702 yet. I'd be interested if anyone else could name any that work.

I was going to buy 1 one of these next week i was gonna join the 02 network anyway so it being locked doesnt really matter but the fact that they have removed google maps does matter.
