Under the 'compass' icon, there is a BB map with GPS feature, or download google map.

If you are at indoor, you need to go near window in order to get satellite signal. HTH.

Click on the blackberry icon key, scroll down until u see a 'compass' icon, i presume your screen similar as BB Bold.

BB maps do not exist in the phone. It is only cached in the phone. You still download it from BB just like you do with Google Maps. It is not stored in the phone. Haven't you noticed the download arrows on the top right corner as you scroll around in BBMaps. It's constantly downloading the maps and caching it.
