What's up with Verizon's 8830?

I've been testing both Sprint PCS and Verizon 8830 for the last couple of weeks.  I've also tested AT&T 8800.  The built-in GPS with Google maps works extremely well.  Browsing is also extremely fast.  I will admin that RIM has the PIM stuff down to a fine art.  Giving world connectivity to CDMA/EVDO devices is a great feature as well if we can get it to work properly.

But, I've noticed that the built-in GPS is glaringly absent from Verizon's 8830.  Why would they do that?  That's a great feature, and it's one of the great add's to the 8800 series, so why is it absent from Verizon's version of the 8800 series Blackberry?
