Everything installed fine, Live search all work great but one thing. When showing my location in this application, it only shows my location by closest cell tower. Is there something I am missing?

All the other mapping software are able to use the internal gps but this one. Google Maps, Nav4All, Telenav...

Other then that, this application was worth waiting for.
I'm having the same probem with Live Search on my Sprint CDMA 8130 Blackberry Pearl. Live Search isn't accessing my internal GPS, but seems to be locating the nearest cell tower. Google maps and the built in maps use the internal GPS perfectly. If Live Search properly utilized the internal GPS, I would delete Google maps and make Live Search my search of choice.

I really like the movie and weather product on Live Search. I'd like to see Microsoft add stocks search and keep improving the product. It's great!
