New Wizard?

---

I heard there was a new wizard model coming out with built in GPRS receiver, anyone know if this is true?

I'm going beat everyone to the punch and save you massive scorn....the current Wizard has GPRS already in it! GPRS stands for General Packet Radio Service, and is one of the ways Wizard (and many other phones) receives data.

Might you be referring to GPS (Global Positioning System)??? Wouldn't make sense for HTC to release an upgrade to Wizard with GPS as they release brand new models all the time (every few months it seems like). More than likely there is a phone out there that resembles the Wizard with the nifty slide out keyboard that also has GPS among other improved specs. Check out the wiki for other HTC phones (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/)

Oh, you're going to PAY for denying a beating...

lol, I meant the service that allows map software like tom tom to work (I guess this must be GPS then and not GPRS!!), because with the current wizard you need an additional bluetooth receiver right?

Yes, that is correct in order to use mapping software such as TomTom you will need a bluetooth GPS reciever.

thanks, man I feel like a doofus!

If you get a BT receiver (I isuggest the Holux GPSlim 236) you'll also need to activate the GPS panel in your wizard.

Here's a link with a nice tutorial. Courtesy of pockepc-Live, which I ran across on Molski's website (www.molski.biz) Thanks!!
