Many new phones have GPS in them already but haven't been unlocked by

Rumors abound that Apple has been looking into location-based
technologies so my guess is that it has a GPS chip but won't be touted
in v1. Apple is known for their software upgrades to hardware that
unlock features of their devices. It would make sense to put some GPS
functionality in reserve when the network is ready for it, then
unleash the feature as a surprise to the worshipping Mac heads.
I for one would love to see the hardware designers at Apple tackle the
GPS unit, however.
Could a GPS chip be identified by photos from those brave enough to
dismantle their new gadget?
