The WiFi-only iPad does not have GPS because some of the GPS functionality is shared with the 3G electronics. A WiFi-only iPad 'tries' to determine its location with reference to a database of WiFi hotspots but, if it's not in contact with WiFi or the WiFi is not in the database, it's unable to determine its location.

Yes.

As the iPad has no usable Bluetooth (only for BT earbuds and another Apple only devices but not a Macbook) I cannot use my BT GPS.
A JB iPad is able to support this as there is a Cydia app which allows using 'normal' BT.
