GPS or Bluetooth dialing?

I'm talking about bluetooth voice dialing, without an app or using a headset like Blue Ant Q1.

Thats what I thought you meant but you said GPS in post, I got confuzzled ..<g>

You're right I did say GPS. Multitasking right now. Eating a sandwich and moderating the Forum.

The noticeably missing Bluetooth voice call capability is NOT missing and is present in Android 2.1. When the Canadian and Euro Milestones received their 2.1 updates on the update feature pages one of the mentioned additions was in fact "Bluetooth voice dialing". Now as to why Motorola/VZW whomever decided NOT to include this in the U.S. 2.1 update to the Droid is beyond me but it does in fact already exist.

Link me and show me a reliable source that says this. Because I sure haven't heard of any Android phone having GPS.

Give me a link and I'll come back and say you're right, until then I stand by what I say. And remember, it has to come from a reliable source like engadget or something similar.

How about the .PDF straight from Motorola?

I see it now. I was wrong, I had no idea that Milestone had bluetooth voice connection.

Well, that really makes it worst. How come we don't have it?

Hmmm...do you really want to trust a source that spells yogurt as Yoghurt?

It appears you can spell it that way too....ok....

lol....Well, it would appear there is going to be that Chrome Market. Interesting.

That's exactly what I have been saying since the update has come out on the Milestone. Either someone at Motorola hates us or they lied in the document. It would be great if one of the ROM devs were able to get their hands on a Milestone ROM and see what if anything can be done to enable this on the Droid.

^This brings up something I thought about today: tethering is in 2.2 update. Some custom ROMs have tethering built in, along with a kernel that has it too....

Is it possible some of these custom ROMs have had bits n pieces of 2.2 already?

Looks like nothing will be official until tomorrow, concerning Android 2.2 at the Google I/O. But there is going to be a lot of people leaving the I/O with Android 2.2, so I would imagine we might see ROMS popping up pretty soon.

Are they doing updates or something via WiFi?
