You can request status update without location updates but the GPS status 
will be changed only if some other application did it.
Therefore listening for the status updates without location notifications 
makes sense only for some kind of a background service when you want to save 
location whenever somebody else gets it.
BTW: Android introduced "PASSIVE_PROVIDER" in API 8 which should be used to 
achieve such behavior (i.e. get location updates when someone enables GPS).
