Re: airave said by CMoore2004:I think the GPS does more than make sure you're in the US. Sprint can't use the spectrum the Airave operates in if they don't have the license to that band in the area you're in. It may also have some E-911 functionality, but I'm not sure about that. This is an excellent point! Until you mentioned it, I assumed the GPS was only for the carrier's benefit (making sure you're not taking the unit out of your calling area). I was thinking it'd be fun to figure out how to spoof the GPS signal and use it overseas. I'd still love to figure out how to do that, but now I wouldn't just piss off the carrier -- I'd be pissing off the FCC and it's foreign counterparts too! Two birds with one stone!
