Does the GPS on the blackberry 8110 go through the carrier or is it DIRECTLY to the satellites?

When you update the GPS location on the blackberry, is it connecting to the GPS satellites around the globe or does it have to make some sort of request though the BIS server first?

is there a cell phone in the US that can be unlocked to fully work with the GSM and GPS in Europe?

I’d like to buy a cell phone here in the US that will work just fine AND have the GPS unlocked for the US (maybe Google maps). Now, the same cellphone I’d like to be able to unlock its GSM to work with any carrier in Europe AND have some sort of Europe maps loaded and working.

Thanks a lot!

If i get a unlocked blackberry 8310 would i be able to use the gps service with T-mobile carrier?

Where can I find a refurbished Nokia N95? Also does the gps in it work independently of a carrier?

I love the Nokia N95 but dont want to spend $700. I dont mind buying it refurbished but cant seem to find any stores online. Can someone please help. Also, I know it has a built in gps, but can it work independently from my carrier? I dont want to have to pay for gps services. Thanks.
