I can't really answer your question directly, but I have a Sprint 700wx and it 
isn't supported on that either.  It could be a CDMA issue, that is, the 
protocol that both Verizon and Sprint use (as opposed to AT&T and Tmobile's 
GSM).  More likely it is just that these carriers don't allow third-party apps 
to access cell-tower data.  The reason I say this is that at least for Sprint, 
this triangulation data is available.  Check out Sprint Family Locator, which 
is a service that lets you check the location of phones on your plan on demand. 
 I tried it out for a few months and it was fun, but ultimately I didn't want 
to pay the $10/month because I just didn't use it very much.  I'm hoping that 
Sprint and Verizon open their systems up, but I don't know if there are any 
plans for doing so.  At least the 800w will have GSM built in...
