I got it also, did a quick google and this is the only thing that I can
find that might explain why.

<quote>However, with my Rogers HTC Magic running the stock ROM, if I
have GPS enabled when I dial 911, the phone crashes and reboots. I
tested it 10 times, and it crashed 9 of those times. If I disable the
GPS, it doesn't crash.</quote>
Also, I heard that Roger's is going to be offering a free swap of HTC
Dream, for a Magic, since for some reason the Dream is not upgradeable
to Android 2.0 but the Magic is. If this is true I find it hard to
believe that Rogers would do anything for free, unless HTC is
participating in funding it also.

Hi Guys,
Just received a message on my rooted/unlocked HTC Dream phone from 4826 with
this message:
4826:Rogers/Fido service message:Urgent 911 Calls:Please disable GPS location
on your HTC Dream device to ensure all 911 calls complete. HTC is urgently
working on a software upgrade and we will provide details shortly so you can
re-enable GPS.
What the heck does GPS have to do with 911? Is this some sort of spam?
Does this mean I couldn't make 911 calls in the past 12 months when my GPS was
ON if I was in trouble? LOL...nice find/really quick.
