God Bless 3G Rev. A

Sprint has been promising GPS and Rev. A on the touch forever now, so i took it into my own hands. I unlocked the phone, loaded up the Alltel Touch Rom, then loaded a Custom Cooked Rom. Tom Tom Navi works, Sprint Navi Works and google maps woks with GPS no
And now for the Big news:

DSL Reports test show:
890 kb/sec
.0117s latency
and tons of awesome. I love it. the phone is amazing now and works great when used as a modem for my laptop.

Yup, google maps works with turn by turn and map follow feature. But the sprint navi software works great as well.
