GPS is offered free and will soon be upgraded, but the EU has
succeeded in signing up China, India and Israel among its partners in
developing Galileo.




So, will the EU system be free to users, including foreign countries
as the US GPS system is?

It would have to be. Unless...a coin-operated Euro GPS vending device
from Garmin? Drop in a Euro? I've not seen a Euro coin, actually.


The Dish Network and DirecTV aren't compatible. They could simply
transmit on a different frequency. It still could be free, you would
have to buy another GPS.
