It worked on my 8800, others reported success on 8820.
Even on BB without integrated GPS, you can connect to external gps puck to get it running on device like 8700.
The beauty is, cannot be over emphasized, it works even there is NO cell phone signal ! Because you can download map data to memory card and use it offline !
The perception of using GPS requires cell phone network is
a very bad idea, which is motivated by business cash flow.
GPS should give users freedom anywhere, anytime, not limited to cell phone network.
