I recently purchased a Sanyo 7050 for FULL PRICE ($320). I purchased it because i needed a new phone and a phone that will withstand being dropped by accident and construction invironments.

The other reason i purchased the phone is for the GPS capability. I was told at the Bell store that the gps was fully functional.

Turns out, after talking to bell and sanyo customer service for hours.... The GPS is not working nor is it available on the Sanyo 7050 at this current time. I brought the phone back to the store i bought it at and they informed me that i have 10 days to switch to a different phone if i want to.

before i do this i want to know. have any other 7050 owners in canada had this problem? I really want to keep this rugged phone but i want gps, maybe customer service is misinformed?

if i do ditch the 7050 does anyone have any suggestions for a strong phone with great reception?

and lastly, i heard they released an updated driver for the sanyo 7050's audio problems? where do i find these downloads and i how do i add them to my phone?

Thanks a ton
