Unfortunately not all tablets have an actual GPS chipset in them. In these cases the "location services" are provided by what cell tower they are connected to. You really have to look at the specs an these tablets to make sure they have REAL GPS on them. I know the ASUS tablets have GPS on them. There are others, some of the Nexus and Samsung tablets do. Not sure about the thousands of others out there.
