Rogers Stops Sales of HTC Dream, Asks Users to Turn off GPS to Allow 911 Calls

In an odd twist, Canadian cell carrier Rogers has stopped sales, activations and upgrades of the HTC Dream and texted all current users to turn off GPS reception. There’s apparently a “bug” that prevents 911 calls from completing when the GPS is “on.” An update to Android 1.5 should solve the problem.

As write this only blogs (including reputable ones line Android Guys and Boy Genius Report) are reporting the sales changes and message to users.
