If the new 3G iPhone has GPS, I’m in !!

I really like the iPhone design. Plus, it would be nice to be able to combine my current cell phone, Palm Pilot, and Video iPod into one device. I have been thinking about acquiring a hand-held GPS (like the Mio) for awhile now, since they have come down in price. However, I have been holding off buying one waiting to see if the new iPhone will have GPS. If it does, that will be FOUR devices in one, from my point of view.

An “offer” I can’t refuse!!

Is it Monday yet??

Is it real GPS? Or just tower triangulation? I’m hearing mixed reports...

How is this different from my Palm Treo 700p?

Ok, my Treo doesn't have a working GPS installed, though I can get one for it.

Phone: Check
Touch screen: Check
Plays music and videos: Check
Connects to Internet: Check

Am I missing something?
