15 miles was pertaining to rural areas with minimal service towers I believe that since the beginning of 2006 U.S. cell phone companies have been required to have the ability to pinpoint 911 calls from a cell phone to within 100 meters. The 15 miles days are a long time ago.

I believe that the VZ Navigator application is an option but that GPS location comes standard. I bet that if you check your wife’s phone you will find that the GPS feature is turned on. To check: From Menu Select Settings & Tools then press OK. Select Phone Settings then press OK...

It sounds to me that some of the information concerning locating cell phone users that has been disseminated might be pretty old. It is my experience that there has been a huge push to get GPS locating into cell phone by first responders. In the past there were many tragic stories about...

I believe that the monthly cost is to use the VS Navigator feature but that GPS locator feature is no cost…and is on by default.

Doesn't her phone, the LGanV2, have GPS?
