Not quite. At&t users are free to use any GPS app. Mapquest and Garmin are just 2 other possible apps available to those on at&t who want voice prompts.

Again, not quite. The GPS receiver works just fine on its own. However, the latitude and longitude it provides are pretty useless to most people. That's where the GPS app comes in. Some are free. Some are not. Refer to the stickied list of GPS apps for more details.

I think you're thinking of Verizon's GPS-equipped BB's.
