Don, have you gotten your Google Maps to work?  If not, some things to
try/check:

Under Locations Services:
- Be sure Auto Locate is on. 

Under Location Services > Preferences > Locate Me Using:
- Be sure GPS is on.
- If you also have Use Google Services turned on, the autolocation is not
very accurate and will only find you within a 1 mile radius.  Turning that
option off allowed Google Maps to find my location precisely.  I discovered
this because my PrePlus autolocation was spot on, but my son's was a big
approximate radius. Comparing the two settings I realized he had "Use Google
Services" set to On, whereas mine was Off.  Turning his off fixed the
problem.

...you can't just use Google Maps - Verizon
disables GPS unless you pay them the $10/month for VZ Nav.
