As previously stated, you need a BB plan for map data. GPS is free and paid for by US tax dollars.
TO get the GPS data, you need to be outside with a clear view of the sky. It can take 10-15 minutes to locate the sats, particularly if this is the first time. The device has to download the ephemeris tables so it knows where the sats are and where to look at any given time and location. For a shorter fix time, use BBMaps or GoogleMaps and locate yourself as close as possible.
