Unless you're rooted I don't think that there'll be much Verizon-labeled bloatware (ex. Verizon Navigator) that you can disable. Most of that is 'system' software. However, stuff like 'Let's Golf 2' can certainly be disabled. See http://forums.androidcentral.com/showthread.php?t=191628

For me, if I disable Verizon Navigator, my gps performance tanks in all applications. Re-enableing Verizon Navigaor fixs that problem even though I never use Verizon Navigator.

Is their a trick to keeping GPS performance with Verizon Navigator disabled?

So helpful, thank you! It's always the little things... I've been annoyed for so long by repeatedly having to choose default apps for navigation and car panel because of bloatware that I never used but didn't think I could disable. Removing updates was the missing link. Your list made it very easy to scroll through and nix others that weren't already on my radar. Thanks!
