Thanks for the input guys. Have they done anything bout the gps deal ? I have noticed that it has been an ongoing issue for some time now. I really havent paid much attention to the slow gps response, untill I started doing a little research on some of your older post ( by the way, u guys have some very informative post. keep up the good work) I just thought and took for granted that the slow gps response was just the way it was with all gps units.
