I'd love this one. That would be the best solution. Hopefully apple is going to de-cripple BT and make it possible

A GPS plugin module for the iphone is in the works and will be available soon, around the summer. It will work with the old iPhone and the new one as well (after it gets jailbroken of course).

Actually networks do get the phone in advance to ensure it will work on their networks. There are some settings that they might need to made, or feedback to phone manufacturer on what to put in firmware before release.

I heard from a friend that knows someone inside Telstra (in Australia) that they have the 3G iPhone for testing purposes.
Telstra haven't made an official announcement yet, but I heard that it will be available in a few weeks.
Telstra have a great network, but they are very expensive. I think that I will see if the iPhone will work on 3, myself, although would consider Telstra for coverage and data speed reasons.
Anyway, we will all find out soon enough if all this is true.

Third party GPS in development...

Indeed they do have 3G iPhones for testing purposes but these phones aren't the final ones. The new iPhone will have a GPS.

I wouldn't be so sure about this unless I worked for Apple...
