Also, PURDooM: In your disassembly of the phone, did you see a way to attach an external antenna for the GPS?

Q1: I seen it a few times in nextel accessory stores, but let me find one on ebay real quick...

It has a notch on the side for you to plug your car charger cable or AC charger cable into.

Q2: I couldn't really indentify where the GPS was, much less where to put an antenna. Putting an external antena for the actuall cellphone wouldn't be hard, however, it is just a spring with the end of it pressed up against the cellphone board.

I had ok GPS reception on my phone from even underneath a seat in my car, so I aren't worried.
