Hi,This web link has some information about 3g. So I suspect you need some sort of WiMax modem with a PCI-E/USB interface to get it to work. Note that the hardware device would have to be whitelisted, so if it is not a supported device, you may have to flash firmware which is DANGEROUS.http://www.lenovos103t.com/2010/03/adding-3g-to-s10-3t.htmlSo, it probably supports GPS in the same fashion; with an add-on card.

For this model, you need to have a WiFi connection or purchase a Sim Card for 3G service. Otherwise, you can not use GPS; it will not function.

go to the gps find inf and look for 2008 version if sucessful it will show up there. I felt the same way you do and by using these updates in NC and SC I have not seen any updates. So you probably were sucessful as I was in two cases first getting the updates installed and two getting ripped off by Garmin see my rating and discussion. Good Luck.

Hi Michelle, I bough the GPS and it's been working very good for me, I know that does it have live traffic but you need to buy an antenna and I know you got have it connected in to the internet (Wi-Fi) otherwise won't work, I don't use that so that's why I can't tell you more about it, but it's a good Truck GPS.

Hey Gerry, I believe the question you're asking is does it require an external GPS antenna correct? The answer to that question is no, I took mine off and now it's in the garage, the GPS works wonderfully with the internal antenna. The only reason you would need to add an external antenna to the GPS unit is if you put it somewhere where it couldn't get a signal, like below deck. I hope this answers your questions, thanks Corey.

GPS is separate. It has an internal antenna. Call support if you do not get it resolved. I love mine.

That's a good question... the seller I bought mine from doesn't exist anymore. The current Amazon seller is IWINW, maybe they have an online website you can download from. Most of the reviews I've read are negative, but mine works fine. The trick is getting it started correctly out of the box, the programs are there... you just need to find the right start-up file and then it will start-up correctly every time after that. It is made in another country and it doesn't work like any of the standard brand GPS units... Magellan, Garmin, TomTom,...

I baught one of these. The first thing thry did was send the wrong unit (model) Only after a great deal of hell-raising did they agree to send the one I wanted.. the first one did not have the gps function. it did have the 3d imaging but I would not call it 'side imaging'. the replacement unit they sent had the gps function (for which I had to purchase software) and did not have the 3d imaging feature. My advice to you .... be very sure before you order.

Darn it, I have never tried the gps; however, I have found customer service at 5 Star to be very helpful. Also, please consider if you find the gps is not satisfactory, return the unit to Amazon or go ahead and buy it from a local Walmart for a bit higher cost, try it out and see what happens. BTW, I only need to charge my unit once each week and the provided test to check the unit works quite well. I like mine and the only negative in the experience is that in 5 Star advertisement, they really should note that a monthly tax will be added just like any telephone system. Mine adds about $3.Harry Darn it, I have never tried the gps; however, I have found customer service at 5 Star to be very helpful.

Was not included but has ports to allow for one. You can find one that will work for pretty cheap money. Side note - I probably would not buy unit again with hindsight. GPS sw needed update out of the box and would cost additional $75. Actually use phone gps that this unit now.

Its best to contact Verizon or which ever carrier you might use to get accurate answer. I have always the bundled services as eventhough I mostly call and text, sometimes might want to goggle something or use the gps app.

Spy Tec has mentioned back on the April 9th that they should have it for sale separately in about a week or so. http://forum.dashcamtalk.com/threads/marcus-1-or-3-anyone-got-them-in-stock-yet-shipping-to-usa.4886/#post-59201Post # 15 hereAlso be aware that the GPS looks like it will not function until you install the newer firmware do to be released soon.

I purchased a gps long ago and I'm very satisfied with it, I DON'T UNDERSTAND why you sent me this email asking me about this nonsense question, I sent positive feed back a few days after a started using the device, so please double check on your emails, it may be a mistake in your behalf. Thank you. !

I just got home with the Magellan Maestro 4250. It doesn't have my neighborhood in it??? I called the helpline and a guy from what sounded like Pakistan told me I had to get an upgrade to 2.36. I have not figured out how to do that yet. I can not seem to find an opportunity to get this firmware downloaded. Can any one help me. I am on the brink of taking this damn thing back to the store. aj

Thank you. Sounds good. Now I want to find it in combo with the NuMaps Lifetime. Nuvi combo have the NuMaps Lifetime for $50 extra, but I can't find this with a combo yet.----------------Garmin said the one with lifetime update for maps (3790LMT) would be out in September, keep checking their website. Said the cost was $499.99. I hate to spend that money, but am getting the voice activated one for safety reasons. Said it was shipped to Best Buy, but I can find it only in Canada...

I believe you can download up to devices. Best bet is to go to Phantomalert.com and contact support. If its for a life time i'm sure it makes no difference if you purchase a new gps next year.

I just bought one and the GPS won't acquire any satellites . My GS4 sitting right next to it gets 17 satellites immediately. I am returning for replacement, hoping the new one works better
