07-09-2010 11:00 PMI'm more so worried about if I can change it to the default. The more I look at the phone the less this becomes a deal breaker, but definitely still a heart breaker. Why Verizon? (I actually know why)

07-09-2010 11:56 PMjust keep in mind vzw can lock down agps to vz navigator, like they did with the palm pre. im hoping not i can live with bing search, but if i cant use the free google navigation, and have to pay vzw for navigation i will pass on this phone. or just hope they root it and get rid of bing all together
Upgrade now or wait hmm that's the question -

07-10-2010 12:11 AMWell its good that it. Can be installed now if its not locked to vz. Navigator that's a plus I've been turned off the x with the encrypted bootloader. Just hoping for a quick root and I'm in

there are two things to rember here. First this device is powerd with Bing that makes itself not a member of the ' Droid " family. Second if root is attained the something like Froyo can be ported to it and google maps and nav would work
Sometimes , It is what it is !
