What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Attempt to access http://www.merkwelt.com/people/stan/geo_js/sample.html
2.  Palm Treo Pro - receive: Functionality Not Available
3.  HTC Touch Pro - receive page, but no pop-up.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Pop-Up with Lat/Lng

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

As a consolation the Google Gears GeoLocation demo does work on the Touch

Oh if that is the case then the Touch Pro simply doesn't the geo api of gears I
assume. Is there a different API you can use for the mobile internet explorer? 
What
browser are you using actually?

On the HTC Touch Pro - this demo DOES work:
http://code.google.com/apis/gears/samples/hello_world_geolocation.html
The location is wrong, but it at least gets a reading.

The Palm Treo Pro doesn't work, so I think you're right - it doesn't geo the 
API of
gears.

this is interesting. it seems that google gears returns

p.latitude
p.longitude

but also

p.coords.latitude
p.coords.longitude

i made a test and uploaded it to:
http://www.merkwelt.com/people/stan/geo_js/sample.html

could you please verify that this works?

Retried:  "Functionality Not Available" on HTC Touch Pro 2 - Windows Mobile 6.5.
Same result on Palm Treo Pro.

The Google Gears GeoLocation Demo doesn't even work, so I think Gears API just
doesn't work with these devices.

yes, google gears might be available, but not the geo location component of the
framework.
