I see "GPS position location enabled" on the feature list. Anyone know anything about this?

As I understand it the phone allows you to select 911 gps option for emergency calls or 911 "push" option to allow merchants to spam you with offers on thier products when you are nearby, both or none. But not gps mapping.

I thought the 911 GPS option was so they could map your location if you ever had to call for help?

That is the first option I was referring to the other is going to be marketing. The good think about it is that the choices are user defined.
