Several readers have pointed to a blog posting at Wellington Financial that reports that Bell is planning to interfere with the GPS signal of late-model Blackberry units.  Users will reportedly experience long delays in establishing a GPS connection when using free mapping applications like Google Maps.  Bell offers a competing GPS mapping service that comes with a monthly fee.
