i’m planning to buy a blackberry that have gps features. i need something that doesn’t require me to download maps, i mean it can receive signal straight from satellites like any other gps receiver.
i’m currently using nokia n95. the gps feature requires me to buy maps from nokia which i found a bit waste of money.
so, what’s the difference? can you recommend me blackberry models with the gps feature & wi fi?

gps enabled and built in gps got nothing to do with the maps.
Or rather phone has pre-installed maps if you purchase from major carrier in a particular region. i.e. singapore , most phone are pre-installed with the map (nokia series)
whether it is gps enabled or built in, it’s referring to the same thing.
note, A-GPS is still GPS except their start up connection which are weaker and will require connection to assisted server (AS) via 3G/GPRS/Wifi.
those phone can still work alone without connecting to AS but you got to wait a pretty long time.
blackberry one will include Curve, Bold and Storm that have all the above feature of GPS and wifi
