Lately they've been disabling built-in GPS features so that they can sell you their $10/month package. Anyway, FM tuner is free because nobody would pay for it. I had one in my handset (Nokia, BTW) as early as 2002 and after playing with it for 5 minutes, never used it again. Now that any decent phone can play MP3s this feature is even more useless.</p> Tom, tell that too Verizon Wireless.
