cell phone gps

In a phone such as the BlackBerry Pearl 8110 (AT&T), which has GPS, I understand that if you want to use it for turn-by-turn directions and so on, you have to add a service such as AT&T Navigator. But if you just wanted to know, for example, where you were, where the different directions are, do you need to buy and software/services, or does that work out of the box? Thanks!

On some phone (like the ones that run Windows CE, etc) you can download the application and data to the machine but you can't do it for all GPS phones.

With the current abduction and school incidents, I guess Im a little paranoid of my son's surroundings whether he is in school, playground or traveling with me and my wife. I have trained him on how to use our home phone and cell phone since he was 6 years old. He knows the do's and don'ts on how to use the phone especially in school. With the GPS technology I will be able to track down his whereabouts if I could not find him. Of course I will respect his privacy too. My biggest concern is that I want to make that he can contact his family in case of an emergency or he can call 911. I know that he is responsible enough but I want to get another opinion about this. Thanks for the input.

this is a personal choice for the parent. only you can make this decision. do not let fear rule your life and please don't teach your child to live in fear. teach him what to do in case of emergency.

I'm 18 and don't want my dad tracking my cell phone with his GPS. I have a feeling he is tracking my brothers but I don't know about mine. I also wanted to know if it was legal to track my cell phone without my consent if I am an adult?

I think it's wrong. And to find out you could try to do the sneaky thing and look through papers and phone bills or you could ask him if he does. If he doesn't addmit it then try to keep on asking him until he cracks. And then you could put your phone in a very strange place and see if he comes or try to create a trap to lure him out.

Is there anyone who can guide me through the process of tracking someone down by using their cell phone gps?

As far as I am aware, you can only do that if you are paying for the account the phone is on, in which case you need to contact your provider. It can also be done in certain law enforcement cases, with proper warrants.

My sister's cell phone got stolen. I'm pretty sure there's a GPS locating chip in it. Is there some way I can use that to find her phone? If not, is there any othe way to do that?

Contact your Network operator and they might find it for ya.
