True, GMaps for mobile always supported built-in/external GPS. Use it on my Trinity too.
The only thing new could be that direct save-to-contacts feature, never tried it, but I guess I can tap the number and save to contacts from the phone application, but that doesn't even require GPS to work.
Engadget Mobile should get out of its iPhone hole and play a wee bit more with Windows Mobile devices.
Works great with my Kaiser too although not always with a pretty GUI for say calling up a local business as in the iPhone commercial. Menus, buttons, and menus.
Youngerguy30, go to Options -> Track Location Settings and make sure "Set by Windows" is clicked off, then click on Track Location and it will use the Tilt's internal GPS.
NuShrike, Microsoft's Live Search allows you to click phone numbers the detail, that's one of my man beef's with Google Maps too. Nothing is hotlinked in the details.

Google Maps works great with the GPS on my AT&T Tilt

How do you integrate GPS with Google Map in the Tilt? There is no option to open GPS under Google Map. Thanks in anticipation.
