GPS/Google Maps

My friend is looking for a device that has either of these.

I know the 6515 is the only device with GPS, but I was wondering if anyone knew how much it cost for the subscription? Is it monthly? Annually? One time fee? I need information on that.

Also, I know that Google Maps work with Blackberrys, seamlessly. Does anyone know if they also work with Windows Mobile devices?

Any input is appreciated.

gps is available for the noki 6682, 8125, blackberry's, and the treo 650. its just with these devices you have to buy an gps adapter kit which ranges from $150-$300 depending on brand and quality. im not sure if the 6515 uses any of the kits or if gps is pre-installed in the phone.

Are you certain that it'll work on every phone? Hmmm....

Are you also certain GPS works with the 6682? I've had this phone since the day it came out and not once heard of it having the capability for GPS.

The 6515 has it built in, I just don't know how to use/activate/pay for it. On cingular.com it says 'service sold seperately' or something to that effect.
